Michelle is such a warm and kind soul. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is struggling with their issues. In just a short space of time I feel better just knowing there is someone to listen, unbiasly and objective with an energy that is so radiant. At times it feels like she is providing a hug through the screen. Therapy is something I would have never in a million years signed up for due to my trust issues. However, I am very happy I decided to take the step and to be matched with Michelle. It is with great pleasure and comfort that I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to seek help.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
