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.

Dr. Browne PhD help me see through the fog of a narcissist family. My life is so much better for it. I've attained a happiness and confidence I felt I was never allowed to let myself have.
I have been hesitant to come back into therapy being that in the past I didn't have what I felt to be a good experience. What I realized is that just hadn't found a therapist that I clicked with. Dr. Browne has made me feel heard and gives me a sense of comfort in creating a safe place for me to discuss what's going on in my life.
