Recent reviews
I have only been with Sandra for a short time but I thoroughly enjoy our sessions. She is kind and compassionate and makes me feel understood and listened to and that in itself is invaluable. Sandra is helping me with things I didn't know I needed help with and I come away from each session feeling lighter. I can't thank Sandra enough and look forward to our future sessions together.

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.
