Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I had to take a break from therapy and I am so glad to be back, meeting with Lorraine Poole. We just met for the first time in months, and it was so incredibly helpful. Things that have been bothering me for weeks are now much more manageable and less stressful because of our discussion and her counseling.

Lorraine has been amazing. I love how she starts off the same way every time, getting a sense for where I am before diving into the talk. I really appreciated that she started off the conversation when we first met and made me feel comfortable with her. She has been so supportive and encouraging of me going through good times and hard times. I’m really glad I found someone who understands and is on my side.

Lorraine is a great listener and her follow up questions really help me dig deeper into my issues

Reviewed June 2024

Lorraine Poole is amazing. She makes you feel so comfortable right off the bat. She listens, and understands and relates to you which I feel like a lot of therapist can listen and understand but do not try and relate to issues. She’s very welcoming and recognizes progress and achievements and lets you know she is proud of you. Truly made me cry the first time she told me she was proud of me. It was a big accomplishment for me, for someone to finally say they were proud of me. She lets me go at my own pace, and handles my bouncing back and forth of a mind. Truly happy I was paired with her!

Reviewed April 2024

Lorraine is an amazing therapist. I went through a few different people before finding my match with her. I love her energy and what she brings to each meeting. Our video calls start with a rating to see how I’m doing. The first call had structure. I feel so supported in my calls with Lorraine and leave each one feeling so happy and more confident in what I’m doing. I’m very grateful for all her help! Thank you, Lorraine!
