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.

She is honest with her advice and doesnt try to align with what she thinks you want to hear. During our first video chat, i felt so welcomed and not judged.

Anne has been a great person to work with- it is difficult when you are limited to technology, without much personal inflection. But she has been very supportive, yet objective about my issues and working through them. I appreciate that at times, she is personal, but mostly professional and cuts to the chase. She is also incredibly responsive, and seems to respond to me immediately (even on weekends and nights).

I had a wonderful experience working with Anne. Through a very rough fall and winter while I was working and starting nursing school she helped me set boundaries, value myself more highly, focus on my academic goals, and manage my family responsibilities. She was non-judgemental and kind. I am very grateful for her time and help during the hardest part of my year. I know the smooth time I am having with work, school, and family is because of the skills and support she offered me during the last three months.

In my short time with Anne Douglas I have had a great experience. She has good insight and asks thought provoking questions. She is easy to talk to and not judgmental in any way. I am able to go through my process as I want with minor steering. The best part is that she responds very quickly. I haven’t been let down yet!
