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.

I have very much enjoyed working with Mike. I find him to be a good fit.
Excellent therapist
Mike is super awesome - best therapist I've ever had. Super hands on approach offering many skills - but ultimately a great guideline to getting to the bottom of core beliefs and CBT.
Mike has helped me deal with anxiety and offers valuable insights over the time we spend together
Mike has been great in helping me cope with and gradually come out of my depression. He has been supportive but also directive when he needs to be. I recommend him without reservation.
Very insightful and helpful.
Mike is a professional providing valuable insight and a down to earth, no nonsense approach that's just right for me. The intensity is just right and can't recall ever a shallow discussion. I originally thought "digital therapy" would not work for me based on my first experiences with it. I want to add, for those out there in similar situations, I'm a father of two children, operate a growing business, and am in process of divorce. In late 2022, BetterHelp's filtering presented Mike. Mike's level of support and appreciated what he's provided over the past year is invaluable. I highly recommend Mike, especially in the areas of divorce/relationships and family.
Very professional would highly recommend
I recently had the privilege of working with Mike Miano, and I cannot express enough how transformative and positive my therapeutic experience has been. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt a sense of warmth and genuine compassion that set the tone for our sessions. Mike possesses a remarkable ability to create a safe and non-judgmental space where one can explore their thoughts and emotions freely. His empathetic nature and active listening skills fostered an environment where I felt truly heard and understood. Throughout our sessions, I found Mike's insightful guidance to be both comforting and enlightening, allowing me to gain valuable insights into my own patterns of thinking and behavior. One of Mike's standout qualities is his adaptability in tailoring his therapeutic approach to meet individual needs. Whether delving into deep-rooted issues or addressing more immediate concerns, he seamlessly navigated the complexities of my experiences, offering practical strategies and coping mechanisms that proved to be invaluable in my daily life. Mike's expertise in various therapeutic modalities is evident, and he skillfully integrates them to create a personalized and holistic treatment plan. His genuine commitment to my well-being was evident in the thoughtful strategies he employed to help me navigate challenges and foster personal growth. Beyond his professional competence, Mike exudes a rare combination of authenticity and kindness. His warm demeanor and unwavering support made each session a collaborative journey towards self-discovery and healing. I felt empowered to confront challenges head-on, armed with the tools and insights Mike provided. In my time with Mike, I witnessed not only a skilled therapist but also a dedicated advocate for mental health. His passion for the well-being of his clients is palpable, and it undoubtedly contributes to the positive and transformative experiences that unfold within the therapeutic relationship. Without reservation, I wholeheartedly recommend Mike Miano to anyone seeking a compassionate, insightful, and highly effective therapist. He is a true professional who possesses the unique ability to guide individuals on their journey to emotional well-being, making a profound and lasting impact on the lives of those fortunate enough to work with him.
He is the best therapist I’ve ever had in my entire life.
Mike has been helping me out tremendously, I took a break from our sessions due to work and life obligations and realized how important Mike is in getting me through day to day life, if I was a professor I’d give Mike a A+
Michael is incredible! Honest, intelligent and was really able to help me get to the root of an issue I was having. I learned a lot from our sessions and would highly recommend him!
I appreciate Michael's professionalism, honesty, and understanding. He is a great therapist.
Michael M is excellent. he listens and hears, in between, the lines. I feel like we have made great progress in a short period. I completely recommend him.
Mike is really great. I am so lucky to have met him, especially never had therapy before and not sure I really even needed it. He is very personable, thoughtful and easy to talk to, and even after I drone on with a number of non sequiturs, it is amazing how he is able to pick up on even the slightest thing I say and put it in perfect context. After only a few sessions discussing a fairly multifaceted issue, I can tell that Mike is really, really good at his profession. Very highly recommend him, as long as it doesn't make it harder for me to schedule a session with him. ;)
