Lucas is an excellent therapist! I asked for someone who could be straightforward, and who will “call me out” when I’m using humor or other methods to distract from my issues. He asks hard questions and encourages me to think about things - even when those things may be hard to face. He listens and responds thoughtfully. He has provided worksheets to supplement our sessions. Highly recommend!! I’m three sessions in and already have a better understanding of my behaviors and choices.

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.
