I like the fact that I have the opportunity to do business with a therapist that has been in the business for as long as he has. I know he’s versed and knowledgeable in all different areas and I feel totally comfortable with telling him my issues. As a man in the black community, it is frowned upon to go seek therapy. We are taught to be strong and be fierce and be tough and not need any external help, but my therapist has made me comfortable and being vulnerable and that is important to me because I have so much built-up anxiety, anger love and just every emotion known to man. the fact that I can express those things is helpful to a degree that can’t be calculated at

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.
