2nd session in, and I'm really feeling comforted and supported by Dr. Choi. I told her my priorities of discussion and she is paying attention to this 100%. This means a LOT to me. I can see myself being with her for a long time. And if I'm ever lucky enough to travel to her area, i would love to meet and have a session in person.

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.

I can see myself being with her for a long time. And if I'm ever lucky enough to travel to her area, i would love to meet and have a session in person.
She’s talented in this field and in just the first few minutes I felt comfortable. She’s my favorite therapist that I’ve had and highly recommend her.
