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.

My therapist doesn't judge me but relates
Jerome has been an absolute blessing from the Lord. This man has a heart for God and is so good at taking my struggles and turning them into motivation to do better. He applies parts of the Bible to my daily struggles in ways I’ve never thought of and he just gives me so much inspiration to be the best me. 10/10 would recommend Jerome!
Great listener. I’ll talk in circles but he always brings me back to the root to help me see.
Wonderful therapist, really makes me feel comfortable and at ease.

Mr. Rivers is a phenomenal therapist. His experience and ability to listen and understand is immaculate. Mr. Rivers knowledge and compassion for his job goes above and beyond measure.
