More about Challis
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
My philosophy is that mental health is a necessary component of overall health and well-being. I take a holistic approach to therapy with the aim to provide support that encompasses the physical, social, emotional well-being of the client. Leading and encouraging with empathy and understanding, I listen and learn about the unique needs of the individual. After graduating with a masters in clinical counseling from Johns Hopkins University, I gained experience by accepting a diverse clientele including adults, couples, families, and adolescents. I have worked with clients impacted by anxiety, depression, trauma, domestic violence, and immigration issues, and I am prepared to offer counseling services to these people and populations.

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.

- 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.

She is caring and compassionate. She has been helping me heal and grow
Challis is arguably the best therapist I’ve worked with in my 20 years of therapy. She is sensitive but tough, kind but reasonable, makes you feel welcome but pulls no punches, and helps you believe in yourself. I am so grateful.
Challis is so good at what she does. She has helped me gradually explore the root of what I am feeling and why I am feeling that way. I am happy to go to therapy each week because I feel like I am heard.
Challis is the best.
