Yvette puts things I say into a perspective I didn't consider that helps me realize different ways to better my relationship with myself

Reviewed November 2024

Yvette listens and adds a different perspective on mine which I really like. She’s given me several aha moments by shedding a different light on something. I have a complicated story and she tracks well I like the homework and she gives a good summary, of the theme at the end.

About online counseling

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.
