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.

Great experience!
Laurel had been a positive influence in my mental health, by being a good listener and offering very insightful CBT technqiues
Laurel is very attentive and makes my therapy personalized. I feel she asks questions to better understand me and recommends different exercises based on my needs.
With just a First session I put in to practice some of her advice in my daily life. I see things differently now.
