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.

Overall rating:
Only been with her for three sessions but I feel comfortable and safe with her
shes great
Carrie is incredibly kind, professional, and compassionate. She listens and is active in my therapy and is open to different approaches and finding what works best with me. I’ve seen many therapists and she is absolutely one of the best. She is kind but stern and makes sure I see the meaning behind my actions and is often a voice of reason amid my rambling. Absolutely recommend.
Good job!
Carrie is great. She's always there whenever I have a question and she's really helped me with a lot, but especially my anxiety around healthcare professionals.
Carrie is very understanding and caring. She likes to understand what you want and she will do her best to provide it. She is very respectful.
I never had a therapist that made me feel like I actually matter and actually wanted to help like Carrie.
