"Dr Gates met all my expectations. Not sure how it happened, but I have let go of some of my problems and worries that I was carrying around. Still got some work to do but, I'm headed in the right direction."

"I have only been using Online Therapy for 3 weeks but have to say that out of all the therapy platforms I have used, this would be my top pick. I love the wide array of tools complementing the actual teletherapy, which in itself is quite generous (1-2x weekly of 45 minute sessions versus other platforms that only offer 30 minute sessions). I was also quite lucky to be paired with a therapist (Dr. Mary Gates) who I clicked with immediately on the first go. She is very compassionate, non-judgemental, and makes you feel like she truly holds a safe space for you to discuss any issues."

"It's a great platform for any one desiring self improvement!
Not just for those who are in trouble
I recommend everyone should take some of the issues of life to a therapist.
My experience is that another trained person has a vantage point and it's of huge benefit to gain insight into your own self.
Nice interface and therapists promt to answer your queries.
Well done!"

"I did extensive talk therapy as a young woman, which was extremely useful. I recommend it. But in my current situation, I wanted to find ways to deal with my anxiety, which had become disabling. I wanted concrete steps for now, and not so much a deep dive into my past. This program, and CBT, turned out to be the right way for me to go at this point in my life. I feel like I have the information and the steps, and although it will be a process to re-frame my thoughts and emotions, I believe it can be done. My therapist had insightful comments and a sense of humor, which I appreciated. I'm glad I did this program!"

"I'm glad to be addressing my anxieties, and glad to be using the solution-based CBT method. I did years of (very helpful) talk therapy when I was a young adult, but at this point I know what my issues are and appreciate dealing with them specifically. My therapist is responsive and has a sense of humor, which I appreciate."

"I put off therapy for years, because I struggle talking to my friends about my problems. But Dr. Gates made me feel comfortable from our first session. She is patient and never to pushes me to talk about anything I am not ready to talk about."

Thank you so much, you have been most helpful to me during a difficult time in my life."

"The program was great! My therapist listened well to all of my problems and offered great solutions to change my way of thinking and get me going on the right path. Of course it takes a lot of personal effort too but my confidence has gone up and anxiety has gone down in about a month. I would recommend this to a friend."
