About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

I was really nervous before my first session but Anna has made me feel at ease and she has also helped me feel listened to and understood. I feel like I come away from each session with clear actions to take and goals to work on.

Reviewed August 2024

Anna’s great, she eases into the sessions nicely, and lets you choose what you wish to speak about. Which I think is great because the more you build the trust the more you can choose to share. And she’s so non judgmental, and is really supportive yet unbiased!
