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.

I did two years of therapy with Dr. Taulbee and it was one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. She not only helped me cope with issues that I was currently having in my life, but also worked with me on understanding my childhood and how it had affected me moving forward. I recently finished up therapy with her, and I’ll miss speaking with her, but I know that she gave me the tools to help me deal with any situations that arise in the future. She is caring and easy to talk to, and she has such a good memory for anything that I had ever told her. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a therapist. :)
