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.

My past experiences with therapy sometimes led me to feel like I wasn't being taken seriously or lacked the guidance I needed to step back and practice mindfulness to the extent that I needed to. My time with her has led me to feel confident that she not only takes me seriously but respects and supports my needs, wants, goals, and the like. I really value my time with her
