🌿 What Is Teletherapy?
Teletherapy (also called online therapy or virtual therapy) is just like traditional therapy—only it happens through a secure video platform. You and your therapist meet at a set time, talk face-to-face (virtually), and work together just as you would in an in-person session. It’s not impersonal or robotic. In fact, many clients find teletherapy more comfortable because they can show up in their own space—with a cozy blanket, their dog at their feet, or a warm cup of tea in hand.
✨ Why Consider Teletherapy in Colorado & Georgia?
Here are just a few reasons why clients across Colorado choose teletherapy:
✅ Flexibility & Convenience
No commute. No waiting rooms. Just therapy on your schedule—during a lunch break, before picking up the kids, or after work in your favorite chair.
✅ Access No Matter Where You Live
Whether you’re in downtown Denver or a remote Colorado town, teletherapy brings quality mental health care to you. All you need is a reliable internet connection. If you're in Georgia and can't find a therapist who feels like a good fit, telehealth is a great option to expand your search!
✅ Comfort and Privacy
Some people feel more at ease opening up from the safety of their own home. Plus, there’s no risk of bumping into someone you know in a waiting room.
✅ Same Effectiveness as In-Person
Research shows that teletherapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for anxiety, depression, trauma, and more. What matters most is the connection—not the location.

💬 Common Concerns About Online Therapy
“Will it feel awkward?” Most people feel more comfortable than they expected, especially after the first session. Once we figure out any technology issues, it's usually smooth sailing! I guide you through the process, and we build the same rapport and trust you'd feel in my office.
“Is it secure?” Yes. I use a HIPAA-compliant software through Sessions Health to protect your privacy. Your sessions are confidential and protected, just like in-person therapy.
“Do I have to be tech-savvy?” Not at all. If you can open a link and click “Join,” you’re good to go! I’ll walk you through any tech concerns so you feel confident and supported.
🧠 What Issues Can We Work On Together?
All the things we would work on in person! Through teletherapy, I support clients with:
Anxiety, stress, and overwhelm
High-functioning anxiety and perfectionism
People-pleasing and boundaries
Life transitions and burnout
Values-based living and emotional resilience
Whether you’re a college student navigating change, a parent juggling too much, or a professional on the edge of burnout—teletherapy can meet you where you are, literally and emotionally.
