I am still relatively new to this whole world of therapy and self help, yet Dr. Baldwin makes the transition incredibly smooth and constructive. I have felt a sense of relief when working with Dr. Baldwin and look forward to my growth through his guidance.

Working with Howard as my therapist has been a rewarding and an amazing experience. When I leave the therapy session, I have an opportunities to do something different (for the better) by using the techniques or activities given. Howard is attentive and has a calm demeanor which helps me stay grounded. I am a work in progress, yet excited to know I am in trusted hands with Howard.

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.
