I think Erika was a great choice, she listened and gave advice and made me feel comfortable with opening up about my feelings. I would recommend her to anyone, very personable and very professional and supportive.

Erika has been a great support in the phase I am going through, it feels as if she is right next to me guiding me through and most importantly listening to all that I have to vent. In a few weeks, I already see a positive change in myself and I am loving it!

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.
