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.

He helped
He listens well and has lots of good advice. His wisdom is very helpful
Very attentive and gives me what I need
He tailors the treatment to me in how I'm feeling and is very conscious of my needs as a patient
Easy to talk to and listens well.
Richard Gibbons is an amazing therapist! He has helped me when I felt hopeless and negative about myself, he shows me that there is good in all of us.
It's just an overall good match. He reaches out to me with resources that I ask for help on and sometimes even with things that I didn't know I needed. He helps me stay on track during our sessions and to not fall down the empirical rabbit hole I normally go down when I talk about my problems and feelings.
I like him! He listens well and is very attentive. He is knowledgeable and gives great insight. Looking forward to continuing our talks.
Richard was great help as I navigated a time of transition in my life. He was encouraging and provided relevant resources. I’m grateful for our time together.
Richard has been incredibly helpful in helping me work through and process different aspects of my life. He’s very insightful and always listens thoughtfully. I also appreciate the resources and insights he’s able to provide throughout the week outside of our sessions.
I greatly appreciate the help that Richard Gibbons is giving me . I have many issues to work through, but my primary need was someone who would listen and understand my circumstance as I work on resolving my issues with his help. I am grateful for this service

Richard provides great resources and offers good advice. He is very patient and a good listener. You get out of things what you put into them, so if you make a real effort to listen to him and work through the suggestions/goals, you will find new perspectives. I am handling stress better and performing better already! Look up the content he recommends on YouTube too, it helps!
Mr. Gibbons' rich life experiences allows him to connect with people from all walks of life. Saying he is an emphatic listener is an understatement. His unique life perspective helps me to understand and appreciate where I am in my life. I cannot recommend him enough!
Richard is extremely attentive to my needs and I love that he gives me homework between our sessions to continue healing and growing.
