So far, we’ve only had one session, so I don’t have a lengthy experience to share. The highlights for me in that session though, were that Dr.Cunningham was calm & soothing (when I was not in a great place at the moment), yet firm and directive. Looking forward to our next session on Friday!

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

She is a nice woman. Highly recommend
So far I have only had a couple sessions with Dr.Cunningham but from my experience with her I have nothing but good things to say. I feel very heard when I talk with her, even if what I'm saying doesn't make sense to me she is able to understand what I am trying to get across. I can't wait for more sessions with her in the future!
She does a wonderful time.
Great listening skills and responsive with valuable feedback
She is very attentive and a good listener. Gives me tasks and a little push in the right directions. I feel very honest when I speak and she helps point out my mistakes and what I can do to take action.
Absolutely love her! Very thoughtful and takes time to understand!
She is insightful and kind!
You are an excellent therapist
