Philicia is thoughtful, caring, and honest - all the things I need when looking for a therapist. I was able to work through a lot in just a few sessions with her as she made me comfortable to share things I hadn’t even said out loud before. I am beyond grateful for her advice and counsel.

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.

I have had a couple of sessions with Philicia and even in this short amount of time she understands exactly what I am going through and have gone through. She listens and helps put it all into perspective for me. I look forward to our sessions because I know that Philicia cares about me and my well-being.
Philicia makes me feel heard and validated. She also gets to the point quickly and is candid with me. In the short time we meet and via text, this is perfect.
