I've just started my sessions with Matthew but I feel like a huge weight is lifted. I spend most of our sessions talking endlessly and realize I have just had so much to say but no safe place to say it. Matthew has already helped me draw connections between occurrences and emotions in my day-to-day life and I really love the path we are on.

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.
