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.

Overall rating:
Genie has been a tremendous help in my healing and I am truly so grateful for her. I always look forward to my sessions and I wouldn’t be where I am without her guidance and wise words.
The best therapist I have had the pleasure of working with.
It amazes me how much she remembers about my life and the deep insights she sheds. She has lived 8 lives and is so wise in so many ways. I am grateful for her supporting me.
Eugenia Lindsey is literally the best therapist I’ve ever encountered. She listens to all my concerns, addresses them one by one, and gives me coping mechanisms to use in my everyday life. She is extremely responsive and so very empathetic and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone going through mental health struggles. She truly is what I would consider a lifesaver.
I connected very well with Eugenia Lindsey. I enjoyed every session I had with her and she was always providing resources and providing ways to make me think more about what is best for me and not everyone else. I have truly enjoyed working with Genia.
Dr. Lindsey's background and experience have been of great support for my therapy needs. Her perspective and outlook are insightful and thoughtful. She has a wonderful way of seeing the forest through the trees during our sessions. I always have a lot to reflect on after we are done for the week.
She is a wonderful thoughtful therapist. We have related on many topics which has been a surprise. I would highly recommend her.
Wise and respectful. Genie is very good at using her own past experience as metaphor for problems that I face now that help me think outside of the box. She is graceful in her words and patient with my mental journey. I could not recommend her enough.
