I highly recommend Jeffery Foster! He is VERY knowledgeable and gives you practical solutions and tools. Would refer him to any one close to me. After our sessions I strongly feel I have the tools I need to deal with my own personal struggles and how to express my needs to those around me. He’s a respectable individual that has a heart to help.

About online counseling

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.

Jeffrey Foster is a fantastic therapist, he really takes the time to get to know you as a person, not just purely based on your intake form. I appreciate his person-ability and personality, the back-and-forth style of conversation, and how easy he is to talk to. If you're looking for someone who wants to get to know you on a deeper level while intently following along to learn more about your deeper needs and goals, he's your man!
