About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- 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.

Michael is all around a great therapist to have. 5/5 stars.
Wonderful, caring and helpful. I've had 4 different therapists in my life, and he has by far been the best.
So far he is great at listening to my million thoughts and picking out what's most important and keeping me focused on that!
He is exactly what I needed in a counselor. I highly recommend his counseling to anyone. I posted on the board at work thanking them for getting you all for counseling purposes. I have been blessed
So far he is kind and a good listener and seems eager to help me. No complaints.
I think he’s a great therapist. He helped me to identify my values and how to apply it in my relationships and life. I think he would provide a wonderful service to anyone.
Mr. Bohman is knowledgeable and a good listener. We got right to the source of my issues quickly and he made practical advice to help me.

Very nice and knowledgeable person I appreciate his knowledge and skills
He has been an amazing help for me. Absolutely one of the best therapists I've had the pleasure of talking with. I look forward to each session.
I didn’t like my first therapist and was in the fence about Better Help. I decided to try again before seeking an alternative. Then I got Michael. Suffice it to say I’ve recommended him to others.
