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.

Very good at helping you get out of your own way. Allows you to talk through you problems but gives you realistic situations to work on at better yourself and reaching your goals.

I have really enjoyed working with Shona, feels more like talking to a friend. She makes me feel heard and validated when it comes to my feelings. She has provided excellent resources for me to use as well.

Reviewed March 2021

Thank you so much for all your kind help/support/patience these past few months. It really helped me to turn my mindset around, keep my anxieties at bay, proactively think through my upcoming challenges ahead, and simplify down the things I can/want to focus on. Comparing to when I first started, I feel so much stable, optimistic, proud, thankful, and inspired about myself and my situation. It was a pleasure working with you!
