I had a few sessions already with Alison. She is very understanding and empathetic person with kind and loving attitude. I wanted a Christian therapist and I am more than grateful that I have Alison. She always shares with me encouraging Bible verses and tries to guide me and help me throughout the process of biblical recovery from my past and current negative habits and actions.

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.
