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.

Good and supportive

Additionally, Paul’s ability to remember and reference details from our previous interactions shows his attentiveness and dedication to my progress. His professionalism and commitment have significantly contributed to my therapeutic journey.
The expereince was good
I am a few sessions in with Paul but feel confident to talk openly and freely about things. The exercises and things I have read, offered to me by Paul have been perfect and I am already seeing improvements in my ability to control my anger and not have such low self esteem.
