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.

Wonderful, friendly, kind, caring, and thoughtful!
Toni is a great therapist. She listens and doesn’t judge .
Toni is outstanding in many ways. The most important part of Toni is that she truly understands and cares.
Toni has put in so much work to let me know that she is here for me in such a short amount of time. Only two sessions in I already feel like I’m going to progress more than I have with any other therapist that I’ve seen in the past decade.
toni is i️ncredible!! such a kind and caring woman. she has a very warm presence, even through a screen. she never stops letting you know that she is here for you and her support has been crucial for my personal growth
Toni is an absolute pleasure to talk to. Toni is very understanding and a lot of fun to talk to. Each week my confidence in myself grows thanks to Toni. Thank you so much for everything
Toni is a great therapist who talks to you like she is a friend from way back but has many great suggestions and can break down the situation for me to understand it from a new perspective
Wonderful therapist! Couldn't have asked for a better, caring person who listens!
Toni is very relatable and personable. She has a lot of life experiences that give her the expertise and understanding to help you sort out your issues. She is a wonderful ear to tug on and a great friend to have in your corner. I would be happy to have Toni as a personal friend if she wasn't my therapist.
Very understanding and easy to talk to. She has a lot of helpful life experiences as well.
Toni is an effective listener with a warm and inviting spirit. I felt comfortable the very first day being honest and transparent with her.
The best!! In my first session she said, “I hear what you’re saying, but I also hear what you’re not saying.” Hooked me right away
She is very kind and respond fast.
