Dr. Fallon is an amazing person to work with. She listens, cares, and truly makes you feel like she is a part of your team. She does not beat around the bush, and instead tells you up front what she thinks you have issues with and the steps to take to better yourself. I have not for a moment believed that she has ever talked down to me, or even make my problems seem not so important. She is amazing through and through, and I would recommend her to anyone who struggles with connecting with others.

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.
