Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Reviewed March 2024

I’ve had multiple therapists over the years, and Nicole is by far the best i’ve ever had. She never makes me feel judged- I genuinely feel like I could talk about anything and everything with her. She has helped me through many different types of struggles, helped me with my confidence, and has even helped with issues I never even realized impact me. She genuinely cares about her patients needs and wishes, and she has never pushed me or made me feel bad for not completing an assignment or going in a different direction. I adore her and am continually so grateful I was matched with her!

Nicole is fantastic! She listens without judgment and gives helpful feedback to offer a new and healthy perspective to things we speak out. She reaches out between therapy sessions to make sure I'm doing well and she offers tools to use outside of our conversations for managing things I want to work on.
