I have only had 2 sessions with Joanne so far but she always makes sure I feel seen and heard. I leave the sessions feeling inspired to do better for myself and put myself first.

Joanne has a positive vibe that already makes the other person feel better. She is very patient and listens to each detail. She also quotes from her personal experiences and that makes therapy more comfortable.

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.
