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.

Reviewed November 2020

Shanel has the best way of giving me an outside perspective of myself that I need and also steering me in a new direction in the sneakiest way (LOL). I still feel I have a long way to go, but just about two months and I am more focused on who I am, instead of so wrapped up in other people and their emotions. I really appreciate the guidance I’ve gotten from Shanel.

Talking to Shanel and working through my issues have really helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel. She's helped me recognize my triggers and taught me how to set healthy boundaries. I FEEL different after our sessions; happier, more hopeful and most importantly UNDERSTOOD
