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.

Wonderful
Mary is very respectful, understanding, and helpful. Highly recommend, she is very encouraging and responds quickly!
This was the first individual therapy session I have ever partaken in, and Mary Brown immediately made me feel comfortable. Any nervousness I had went away within minutes of speaking with her. And, more importantly, she completely understood my issues and was incredibly knowledgeable regarding how to address and work on them. She provided some useful material to help me work through things and improve myself as a whole. I will continue to work with her until I feel confident my issues have resided. She's trustworthy, kind, and clearly has excellent experience. I sincerely appreciate her for that.
Appreciated my therapist really listened to my concerns and gave me some different perspectives to consider
