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.

Reviewed September 2024

She asks thoughtful questions and gives suggestions, a proactive therapist, which is what I was looking for. Her nature is direct and stern, but in a way that I find efficient and helpful. I also enjoy that she can have a laugh with me, even when i'm confessing some of my struggles. It helps me bond.
