I have found my sessions with Pippa extremely valuable in helping to process my thoughts and navigate some of the challenges I face. She has a calm and encouraging manner and has provided a safe space for me to be vulnerable, open up and make sense of things I have been through and how this has shaped the way I approach life day to day.

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.
