So happy and relieved to have finally found a therapist who listens to understand and not just responds by the book. Anila has been instrumental in my mental health and having a calming, sensible, and wise voice in my otherwise chaotic brain. I feel I've come a long way in just our few sessions together and truly appreciate her going the extra mile and checking in on me between sessions.

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.

Patient and very helpful.
Very patient which is nice.
Anila is very patient and calm. I felt completely comfortable confiding in her and never felt judged. She helped me navigate a particularly challenging period in my life transitioning from being married for twenty years to separating. I recommend her very highly.
She’s easy to talk to, great listener, has effective solutions, and very relatable. Highly recommend!
Anila has been great through the process and progress of my concerns. I would highly recommend Anila.
I’ve been enjoying out talks and it helps me to talk with another person to talk things out.
I am glad I made the decision to receive help. I appreciate Anila. She is compassionate and kind. She listens and gives me tools to cope with my issues. She has been helpful to me.
I can definitely say that Anila has been a great help with my anxiety. I look forward to talking to her and updating her on what's been going on. It takes a big step to actually acknowledge that you need help and it's great to have someone there that is willing to help.
