"It really is a process but I’m already feeling like some weight is being lifted just by being able to say all my thoughts in a safe non judgmental space. I’m excited to see how I can implement what I learn to make me a stronger person"

"It's great having all the resources in one place for a complete approach to mental wellbeing, from journaling (with a template to guide what you write about, while still leaving you with a space to leave your own thoughts) to yoga. I appreciate the centralization of this approach vs. "here's some links or apps that you need to keep track of separately"."

"I have been very fortunate to find such a supportive and empathetic therapist as Dr Vicki. Her exercises, interaction via chat, email and video are extremely empowering. She puts a lot of emphasis on being there for her patients, which I really loved and am grateful for. She has really helped/guided me to come to my own conclusions whilst helping me to avoid catastrophizing. She really knows how to listen and make you feel heard, but also to recognise where behaviour comes from and the consequences and effects of your actions on yourself and others. She is a very well-read, hard-working and helpful therapist and I would recommend her to anyone who really wants to work on themselves."

"Dr. Vicki Coleman was fantastic. She very quickly understood my issues and my goals. In our short time together, I was amazed at how much progress I made starting from our first session. I gained confidence in my ability to deal with challenges I had already identified plus ones that I hadn't considered as issues. Now I just need to practice and continue to remember her insightful advice. She is also a delightful person with a beautiful smile. Just talking to her is calming and reassuring.
The On-Line Therapy service worked well and was easy to navigate."

"Working on finding a balance in motherhood and all of life's challenges has been a difficult task for me, as I have tried to wade through my personal trauma I have stumbled greatly through being a sense of peace and calm for my family. Working in the Online-Therapy platform has helped me grow and reaffirm a sense of self while given me the tools of mindfulness and gratitude. Online-therapy.com has been an easy resource to utilize and navigate, I am beyond grateful for what I have learned and am still learning."
