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.

Even though I haven’t yet had a session with Katie yet, my therapy process is off to a phenomenal start. Through the text messaging feature alone , we’ve already made tremendous progress, even while she is away from her office participating in a professional conference, -with its own busy agenda. She takes the time nevertheless to attentively listen and thoughtfully respond with kindness and compassion. Katie is superb. She is a dedicated and wonderfully supportive professional who goes far above and well beyond the call of duty.

Katie Makes it’s so easy for me to be me literally the purpose! She’s fun and easy to talk to. She allows me to embrace every part of myself without limits. I appreciate her feedback and it feels like friendship thankful for her and highly recommend.

Katie is helping me to use skills to work through my anxiety. Create ways for me to deal and evaluate the conditions. See listened and respected my feelings. She interacted with me about my understanding. I am grateful. Thank you for your hard work.

Thanks for just being there Katie
