About online counseling

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.

Dr. Alexis is an excellent provider who has helped me a great deal. She is the best therapist I have had in my life thus far.

I have been working with Dr Alexis for 6 months now. The progress we have made is tremendous. She reassures me , makes me feel comfortable to unpack difficult topics and retains information to follow up. Dr Alexis always has aids and materials to share and is knowledgeable of our craft. I look forward to our sessions

Dr. Alexis is very quick to respond to any message and makes me feel relaxed and heard when we have sessions. She provides me with worksheets and reviews them quickly with suggestions. I feel blessed to have her as my therapist.

Dr. Alexis is a wonderful therapist who makes building a connection with her very comfortable. She is super knowledgeable and helpful in so many ways.

Amazing therapist!

All her insights and feedback is very helpful! She understands her patients very well too.

She is the absolute best! Her patience and understanding creates comfort to speak to her about anything. I look forward to our sessions and consoling to her in crisis.

Dr. Alexis is a delight to work with. She gives me tough love when I need it but also balances with empathy and compassion. Our sessions are able to be very serious or very light and fun. She is able to read what I need and modify to make me feel the most comfortable and heard. I really appreciate my time with her and I was very resistant to therapy before this!

She is the best. I am thankful to have her as my provider.

Dr.Alexis is so uplifting and supportive. She is so relatable and empathetic. I feel safe to reveal some parts of me that need exposure. She helps me to make sense of them while also holding a mirror of accountability up to me when needed. Don’t choose Dr Alexis if you want to stay sad.lol

I was very skeptical of therapy for many years. The first therapist I tried renewed my fears but I tried again and I’m glad I did. Dr. Alexis is empathetic and also gives tangible next steps of what I can work on. I find her incredibly helpful.
