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.

Fabulous, calming and insightful, asks great questions and some of the things she says stay with me throughout the week. She's helping me a lot. Thanks Trudy.

Trudy has been an excellent match for my situation. She's been incredibly careful and patient to help me see the full picture with problems I didn't completely understand. Most importantly, she became exactly what I needed which was a listener.
