Mary has been a great help in seeing that opening up and talking about things is more helpful than keeping them inside. She has also given me a GREAT book to read and be able to understand the different types of personalities around me and what is healthy and not healthy. I am glad that I took the first step to seeking out someone to talk too and work through things.

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.
