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 just really enjoy her
Easy to talk to. I felt heard and understood. Looking forward to working with her.
Rachel provided me the support I needed and understood my concerns. She was a listening ear and provided quality guidance.
Rachel is an amazing Therapist! This was my first time signing up after many failed attempts with other therapists in my area. From the first 10 mins, she had already made me feel comfortable and safe to start delving into my struggles. She was very understanding, a great listener, but very direct in her approach. Her advice showed how professional and knowledgeable she is about her work. Rachel is very attentive if I have any questions or concerns and is able to provide her own personal touch to our sessions.
