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.

Stella is amazing! She is like a sister or a family member I. How much she genuinely cares. It’s not one of these sessions where you feel like you are talking to yourself the whole time. She talks to you. She gives a lot of feedback and makes you feel at ease even on the first time. Great person and professional. Very knowledgeable.

Stella has been absolutely amazing in helping me transform my brain and the way at which I view the world and myself. She helps me realize my thoughts and patterns that aren’t helpful and then pushes me to think clearly about how I am really feeling and what it could mean. I am truly thankful how she listens and tells me truthfully and honestly what I am doing such as self sabotaging my own growth. I would highly recommend her to any individual who is looking to start therapy. She reminds me that I am human and just being is ok. I am very grateful for her.

I have been working with Stella for about 6 months. She is very considerate; caring and accommodating with booking sessions. She’s helpful and extremely intelligent, but sessions with her often feel warm like talking to a fun, supportive aunt or family friend! I have noticed a significant change in my life and mental health. I was barely functioning. I have watched my life change for the better and have meaning.

The immediate relief I felt after speaking with Stella the very first time was surprising to me. I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with a number of therapists over the years, but no one has been able to really see me the way she has. I always look forward to our sessions and I’m thankful to know her.

I have Stella as my therapist and even though we haven’t gotten to our first session, which was a couple weeks out from signing up, she encourages, listens and responds to my journals all the time. I am shocked and amazed and so thankful that she is so interactive and responsive. I can’t wait to actually have my first session with her. I was reluctant to begin counseling, I’ve had it before but I really need help now for sure. I’m glad I signed up and I recommend better help already. Can’t imagine how much better this can get.
