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 started with Madam Cheryl just about 2 weeks ago, and immediately I felt seen. I truly believe God orchestrated her to be my therapist because she seemed to understand, grasp and provide me the binoculars for me to see the way out of the tunnel. I appreciate her ability to be personable, yet intentional in her counseling. She is practical and helps me set goals that give me confidence and grows my faith. In two weeks, I have grown from feeling like I am in a pit to feeling like I have someone who is a key contributor and partner in helping me get through this phase of my life. 100% recommend her!
She listens,gives me tools to cope with my anxiety.
