Laura is a wonderful therapist! She is so kind and gentle and it is so clear that she genuinely cares for me. I have had 4 sessions with her so far and she has supported me so much to gain self-love and battle my depression and anxiety. She is the miracle that I needed! She is incredibly compassionate and really puts her heart and soul into her work. She makes me feel so much better about myself, and my sessions with her are the highlight of the week!

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.
