She has been great! She understands that we are not all in the same place and that life is a rollercoaster, effected by internal and external events. She listens, and pushes the hard topics. Which is what I need.

I am so happy I was connected with Racheal. She is a wonderful therapist that not only leaves space for me to explain how I’m feeling, but also asks questions that help me find solutions that will work for me. She then gives me examples of how to apply those solutions or strategies to other parts of my life. I feel very comfortable during my sessions with Racheal.

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.
