A demanding schedule, non-reliable transportation, lack of childcare, limited mobility, located outside the area or preference of the comfort of your chosen surroundings are often reasons some choose not to seek counseling after identifying the need.

Online counseling allows flexibility, comfort and convenience of receiving quality therapy from your home or office through encrypted, secure video conferencing.
