I’ve been working with arnie now for a while and I’m so glad i started , I started therapy to address certain things and it would seem due to how much of a safe , comfortable space that Arnie has created that every week I seem to bring a new issue. Regardless of that he listens, he asks me questions , he dosent forget a thing and he is very patient, external to my sessions my mindset honestly is different, my reactions to situations are different and those around me are saying how the see a different side to me and that’s all down to arnie and the little gems he’s dropped in our sessions so far , Genuinely highly highly recommend:) take the leap, you won’t regret it.

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.
