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.

She’s the best. So relatable. Feels like I’m talking to my big sister.
Francine Gordon is easy to talk to and connect with on a professional level. She actively listens. I truly appreciate that.
Love her. She is able to make me turn inward. She also helps me put myself first.
She was so helpful in helping me navigate my anxiety. She gave me lots of tools that I can use throughout my everyday life. Highly recommend.
Francine definitely gave me some eye opening tips and a different perspective of how I can move forward in my journey. I really appreciate her straight forward advice.
Francine is THEBOMB.COM
She is dope and super understanding. Incredibly supportive but will also challenge you, which is absolutely necessary if you're seeking growth.
Francine does an excellent job of listening, offering her thoughts and perspectives (which often blow my mind - in a very good way), and validating me while challenging me. So far so good!
She’s a wonderful listener. Someone who can really stay in tune with a condensed version of anyone’s life experience and dig into them with her probing questions. She stays on track and let’s the patient speak their mind. Unravels their past and puts them back on track. Wonderful and kind to a tee.
Francine is great. She listens and encourages me to set meaningful goals and put in the real work necessary to move forward.
Ms. Francine has helped me with executing a plan of implementing health habits and behaviors.
Francine is amazing! I literally had one session with her but I absolutely love her and think she's so knowledgable, professional and has already helped me so much.
She's awesome I like how she's challenging me
I love her energy. She is very down-to-earth & very helpful. Looking forward to this journey of healing ❤️
I'll preface this by saying that we weren't a great fit, but that says more about me than her. She's very practical and considerate - she really does care about you as a person. She's a great encourager and will push you to be your best self.
Francine is a caring compassionate therapist who made me feel comfortable . Talking to her lifted a weight off of my shoulders and helped me reach my own conclusions. She gave me strategies that were practical and helpful .
