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.

I've never talked to a therapist before so I wasn't really sure what to expect. Joanne has been very helpful every step of the way
Joanne is a great therapist - considerate and kind. She provides her own valuable perspective and helps sift through experiences.
Joanne has been easy to talk to and clearly knows her psychology.She is able to assess the ‘needs’ present in the conversation and ask relevant questions accordingly.
Joanne is a great therapists - she helps me work through problems in my life, not through direct interventions / instructions, but through advice and guidance, and by providing a lot of helpful materials. She is also very easy to talk to, and can provide valuable feedback.
I have felt very comfortable with Joanne since our initial meeting. She has been very patient and helped me explore what it is I would like to work on, how I am feeling and how I would like to feel in the future. She has offered great resources and support.
Joanne is very receptive of my experiences and she comes up with very rational and empathetic responses ans solutions. Her analysis is very accurate and her breadth and depth of knowledge immense.
