I have been with Dr. Visaggi for over a year now. She has helped me through more crucial moments in my life than I can even imagine. I got to a place where I felt I didn't "need" therapy but I decided to do the once monthly and boy, am I glad I did. Life is unexpected and it is always nice to have a person on your side you help you through those intense moments. I am a stubborn person and she tells me what I need to hear and helps me work on ways to manage stressful situations. I am forever thankful for her and could not imagine life without her guidance.

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.

Linda was excellent to work with, she truly cared about what I had to talk about, and it's really a shame that I can no longer continue Better Help. I, unfortunately, cannot afford to continue this service. Thank you for working with me Linda.
Dr Vissagi immediately took a warm and empathetic approach for my mental health. She would talk with me as an equal and offer valuable perspective with confidence and resolution. Highly recommend her services if you are looking for an experienced professional who is kind and direct.
caring therapist
Dr. Visaggi helped me light the fire within and keep it burning after deciding to leave an abusive marriage.
Loved it! Been having Dr.V for a year and she’s been so helpful. Unfortunately the time isn’t work for me atm but I would want to continue when it works!
I've only known Dr, Visaggi for a short amount of time but I believe she is going to give me the tools to be a better ME.
She is awesome
Dr.Visaggi has been great!
She is EXCELLENT!!!
Literally such a great therapist no joke
Dr. V is a breath of fresh air. She listens attentively and genuinely cares for your situation and thoughts. She will automatically put a smile on your face when you see her or receive a message from her because she radiates that much positive energy.
Extremely insightful and always considers where I am mentally.
I love her and our conversation but the only thing is I wish she can respond to my message more in a timely matter because if I only can wait for the weekly session to communicate every week I cannot really get much out of it.
I was able to open up in this judgement free environment Dr.V created during our chat. I feel so confident in my ability to grow just after my first session with Dr. V!
