Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Experienced and empathic.
He is so patient with me. Always responds to me almost immediately. He has helped me with my past relationship
Nicholas has been of great help, highly intelligent, friendly and I would recommend to anyone!
Nicholas is a great, experienced therapist. He feels the person and has strong skills of forming a therapeutic bonding. During an online consultation, which naturally has time and form limits, he skillfully creates safe space where you can dip into deepest layers of your psyche.
Nicholas is incredibly insightful and great at trying to bring you out of your conscious mind into the unconscious to get to the core issues manifesting in daily struggles. He respects your knowledge about yourself and therapeutic approaches while also stretching you in a healthy way. I always find our sessions to being about profound food for thought beyond any specific problem I've brought to session.
Nicholas Is such a great therapist. I highly recommend him.
I was very nervous about starting therapy but felt at ease straight away with Nicholas. He is a great listener, understanding and helps me manage and cope with events that happened during my childhood.
Nicholas is amazingly kind and knowledgeable. He's guided me through my emotions and life experiences with great insight . I wasn't sure what to expect from therapy, but I'm very glad I've started this journey.
He's great, good listener, and supports me.
