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.

John is a fantastic therapist. His deep body of knowledge and breadth of experience allows him to truly understand what you are going through. He made excellent recommendations for me and I would 10/10 recommend him.
John has a lifetime of experience with people around the world, and it shows in when you talk with him. I really like how he has helped me getting deeper into issues in a gradual, gentle way.
John takes time to explain things carefully and has a story for everything I’m going through. He is easy going and philosophically aligned with me. Fantastic experience with him!
I am so grateful to John McCafferty for his wisdom, knowledge, compassion and his ear. With his guidance, I was able to work through all of my pressing issues. I now have a full toolbox to work with everyday challenges that were previously getting the best of me. I am so thankful to be turning the corner and I feel ready to face anything that comes my way. Thank you, John.
John is patient, knowledgeable, expierenced, always prepared, non judgemental, open about his own experiences and an all round good egg. I feel so comfortable telling him everything and anything I need to, in order to be the best me I can be and I genuinely belive that he is personally invested in my progress. I'm so grateful for BetterHelp for bringing John onto my healing journey.
John is the best therapist ever. He has the tools to help me get through the most confusing period of my life, he also has experience and stories in his past that I can relate to. Thank you for all you do John.
John has a deep knowledge grounded in some personal experiences he shared with me. I appreciate his honesty and compassion. He is committed to guide his students to the best possible solution for them to see a pathway to healing past hurts. Thank you John!
Wow, what can I say? I have been in therapy off and on for years and after moving to a new state, I had to find someone new to work with. I was nervous about this process as I know that finding a therapist to really connect with is harder to do than it may seem. I am so glad that I was matched with John. From our very first session, I felt at ease and comfortable with him. He has a way of letting me speak but then asking challenging questions to help me think through things in a different way. I have seen positive change in myself, my thought patterns and behaviors since seeing John for therapy. I highly recommend John if you are looking for a great blend of no judgment, caring human, and no extra fluff.
I have really enjoyed my time with John. He was very understanding and easy to engage and talk through my situation, and also providing appropriate guidance and tools for me to take away and consider.
Really kind and to the point, but not bias. I would recommend John, hes not Judgemental and over all very easy to talk to. This was my first attempt at therapy and its been a better experience for me than i was expecting
Good fit for me
John is awesome! I really feel understood and listened to when we have our sessions. He always applies his wisdom and life experience to my specific issues and gives me solutions and guidelines to help me work through it. John is also such a cool guy that's lived an interesting life. He always has something interesting to say. I highly, highly recommend John as a therapist!
Excellent Therapist with so much Expertise, he really knows his stuff 1000%. He gave me GREAT tips & advice that I will start to apply to myself immediately. I definitely recommend him, 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
