Online Counselling Therapy
WHAT I CAN OFFER
Online counselling refers to therapy sessions conducted remotely through video calls, such as Zoom. This form of counselling provides a convenient and accessible way to receive support from the comfort and privacy of your own space. During online sessions, you will have the opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations with me, Dave Segal, a dedicated counsellor and therapist, who is committed to helping you on your journey towards healing, resilience, and personal growth.
Through online counselling, you can expect the same level of professionalism, expertise, and therapeutic support as you would in face-to-face sessions. The virtual environment offers a secure and confidential space for us to work together on addressing your specific concerns, developing coping strategies, and achieving your therapeutic goals.
