Laura has been nothing short of helpful. I have been experiencing a very tough time in my life and she has continued to reassure me that I am seen and heard. She has gone above and beyond to provide me with community resources. She is truly an amazing therapist. By far the best experience I’ve had with a therapist thus far. She shows in every session, just how much she cares about you not only as a client, but a person as well.

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.
