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 extremely nervous to start therapy but Yolanda creates a safe, fun, lighthearted, and open space for you to share whatever you want with her. She works you through issues with goals, plans, exercises, and journaling! Highly recommend her to anyone entering this world or wants a judgement free and open minded modern therapist.

In a short amount of time I felt seen and heard. We got straight to the root of my issues and she was able to provide me with different resources and solutions! I would work with Ms. Pearson in the future and recommend anyone to work with her as well.
