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.

Excellent therapist
Sherry has been amazing as I start my first experience with therapy. She listens, encourages, and supports me. I enjoy talking with her and will continue to do so.
Ms. Sherry is fantastic! I feel like we were able to develop a good rapport right away. She listens without judgment, and asks clarifying questions. I feel like I can be open with her, and feel comfortable with being honest in talking about what's going on in my life.
Sherry is a wonderful person, great listener, very caring, understanding and very professional. She will answer any questions I may have and provides support as needed. ♥
Very first time taking seeking out therapy and I couldn’t be happier with being paired up with Mrs. Sherry Coleman. She’s very kind, concise and knowledgeable and I couldn’t have chosen someone better to feel as comfortable as I do sharing my story and thoughts with.
Sherry is attentive and easy to talk to. She is committed to getting to know my situation to better guide to my goals. She’s been great this far.
