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.

Dr. Jackson was of great help in this season of my life. She is a great listener, wise, kind and intelligent. She helped me to see that my season of depression, post breakup with my ex partner was just temporary and only a stage passing by during my life. She has helped me to hope again and move forward. Her counsel was timely in my life.
I absolutely cannot express how BetterHelp and Dr Jackson have changed my life for the better. I’d be lost without my therapist. She is a great person to talk to and she cares about me and is so competent and wise. Thank you for being there
Dr. Jackson is a warm and caring person who is a great listener and asks great questions to get me to chat about and share what's on my mind. She has great suggestions for me and in a very short period of time has made a positive difference for me.
