What impressed me the most about Ruth David was her empathy and compassion. She is genuinely invested in my well-being and shows unwavering support as I work through the complexities of narcissistic abuse. Her ability to validate my experiences and emotions without any judgment is incredibly healing and empowering. I am grateful for her expertise, compassion, and guidance during my healing journey. If you are seeking support and understanding in navigating the aftermath of narcissistic abuse, I highly recommend reaching out to Ruth.

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.
