I’ve been working with Shelia for a little while now, and I truly can’t say enough good things about her. She brings such a calming, grounded presence to every session. What I appreciate most is how she incorporates the Bible in a thoughtful and uplifting way that helps me process and work through my challenges. Her guidance always feels rooted in both faith and wisdom. She’s also been incredibly helpful with relationship issues—she listens without judgment and helps me understand the deeper patterns while giving me practical tools and encouragement. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, more confident, and more connected to myself and to God. I’m so grateful to have her support on this journey.

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.
