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.

Cynthia has been a great communicator and helper for me. I look forward to our calls each week. She is warm, friendly and cheerful.
She’s great !
I enjoyed the one session I had with Cynthia so far. Even though it was only a 'get to know you' chat, she listened and provided tools and feedback that was very useful and that I reflected upon multiple times since our session.
Cynthia is amazing - approachable, actively listens, and is real with you about your problems. Highly recommend!
Cynthia is great, kind but straightforward. I would recommend her to anyone.
Cynthia was matched and reached out to me at a time I really needed it. She has seen me cry and heard me say things about my relationship I have never been able to tell anyone before so I appreciate her and her listening.
She is amazing and I love how well she listens to me and understands me.
She's wonderful. Makes me feel understood, knows the right words to say for me to open up.

She is so sweet and we just click. We talk about all kinds of stuff and she listens to what I am saying.
Cynthia has helped me see myself from a different perspective. She is my cheerleader and confident. I feel extremely comfortable talking to her. She has on the spot practice advices. She is funny and relatable.
I’ve had 3 sessions and so far have really appreciated each session and already seen a positive impact in my approach to various issues that sometimes cause problems in my life.
Cynthia is so genuine and has already helped me so much. I’m new to therapy and new to her in general, but it’s been nothing but a great experience.
