Samantha’s always there to listen and makes me feel understood. She has provided me with many tools to try to get control over my anxiety and many other problems I face. Samantha has also taken me by surprise many times by reaching out to check up on me or ask me if certain things she has recommended are helping. I honestly can tell she cares and wants what is best for me. She goes above and beyond for her clients and I am thankful I came across her.

Recent reviews
I am still early in my relationship with Samantha, however, she has shown that she does listen to what I’m saying and that is a big deal to me. She provides a comfortable and laid back setting. I also enjoy that she offers multiple means to communicate, and is also available outside the “business” hours.

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.
