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.

Sheila is the most compassionate and effective therapist that I've ever worked with. She remembers what we discuss from previous sessions, and really feels like she's in my corner to help me navigate life

Reviewed May 2024

I have been working with Sheila for about a month now, and she has given me many tools and tips for getting along better with my family, setting personal boundaries, and making my life easier within the realm of what I can control. I know this is only the tip of the iceburg, as she is such an experienced and intelligent therapist, but I look forward to learning much more from her. She also takes great notes and takes the time to review them so that you don't feel like you're having to re-explain your situation multiple times. She is caring and thoughtful. Does not make the sessions feel rushed at all. I am extremely thankful for her insight.

Sheila Stoner is an incredible therapist who has helped me so much. She is gentle and kind, but also really pushes you to question your imbedded thought patterns. I would recommend her to anyone!

Reviewed August 2023

I really appreciated Shelia and her support at a time where I felt like my life was spiraling out of control. With her help, I was able to quickly focus on what was important and prioritize everything that had me in a spin. She takes time to listen or review your typed comments and provide you with proper feedback. I would recommend Shelia to anyone who needs help getting back on track.
