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.

I have only had one session with her, but I felt much better after the first session. Excited to see how things go.

Reviewed May 2024

Alison is very understanding and positive. I felt comfortable with her on our first video. She listened and provided positive feedback but let me be in control of my session.

Reviewed March 2024

Alison is attentive, kind, upbeat and encouraging. She listens well and establishes a rapport very quickly. We have only met three times and she already feels like a trusted friend and confidante. She has made me feel stronger, given me the tools to be more resilient and helped me clarify and focus on my goals. I feel so lucky to have found her and I highly recommend her.
