In my first meeting with Melinda Kline, I entered not knowing what to expect. At the end of the meeting, I felt that I had engaged in a good getting to know you conversation, she understands how I am feeling and why, believe she wants to help me through this piece of my life I am struggling with, and will offer conversation, openness and the tools to help me do that. Today, after my first meeting with her, I feel hopeful knowing I have her in my corner to sort through the overwhelming challenges I am experiencing.

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.
