Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Rabaya has been instrumental in helping me manage my panic disorder over the last few months. She has helped me identify triggers and has also helped me develop coping mechanisms that have made managing this type of anxiety possible. I have been able to return to a sense of normalcy in my life and now have significantly fewer panic attacks than I was experiencing prior to starting therapy - if they do occur, I am able to handle them much better and now very rarely require medication to get through them. Thank you, Rabaya!
