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.

Great therapist active listener very clear and straightforward
Mr. Wussick is professional, friendly, listens and offers great advice and feedback that makes one think esp in a different perspective.
Ronald has been very patient and encouraging. Due to my work, property management, financial, probate, friendship and intimate partner schisms converging simultaneously against my mental health, I knew I needed therapy and someone to talk to but just simply didn't have the time to hold to keep up. I was unable to be 100% mentally and physically present for my therapy sessions. Ronald was more than accommodating and kept me on task in a courteous and professional manner.
Ron is awesome! Really helps me think thoroughly when it comes to my decisions and processing my emotions.
I found Ron to be very helpful during a difficult time, and he had many different suggestions and tools for me to use to help move me through anxiety and some mild depression. Great guy and easy to talk to!
Really fun guy, you can learn so much from him. He is very caring and always reaches out to see how you are doing outside of the meeting time.
Ron has been great. Does a good job of listening to me and I truly feel like he cares about me and what I’m going through
Ron is the man. Great to listen to, and really understands. A very different approach than other therapists. Grateful for him.
He really focuses on your probablemente and will give a variety of different approaches that will help you succeed
Ron's experience was evident from our first session. His unique strategies for dealing with life's challenges are very helpful and practical. Ron also shows a tremendous amount of care toward his clients. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.
He is a trusted adviser and a great listener. His listening and multiple tactical approaches to reduce my stress has really helped me relax and not focus too much on my feelings.
