There’s a moment many clients describe right before their first virtual session. They’re sitting on the edge of their bed or at their kitchen table, laptop open, wondering if talking through a screen can actually feel personal. They’re curious, a little nervous, and sometimes relieved that they don’t have to navigate traffic or a waiting room.

You click “Book Session,” your heart thumps, your throat goes dry, and you whisper to yourself: Is online therapy even going to work?

You’re not alone. For a lot of people, virtual counselling is new territory. Maybe you’ve tried therapy sessions in person before, or maybe this is your very first time reaching out for help. Either way, we understand what it’s like to want real connection, not something that feels cold or distant through a screen.
