So far the best therapy I have gotten and I know I’m improving.

Reviewed November 2024

Never has therapy worked for me until I was matched with Angela Kirkman as my therapist. In just 2 sessions my view on therapy has changed completely. I am excited to go to therapy and speak with Angela, she is there to listen and offer extremely kind support. She points me in the right direction and keeps my head on straight, even if its something tough to discuss, she does it in a very comforting manner. I am lucky to have found such support and would reccommend Angela without hesitation.

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.
