She's great and amazing

Reviewed June 2023

Christy is thoughtful, professional and insightful. She clearly understands difficult mental health issues, such as borderline personality disorder, and the impact on families. I would recommend her without hesitation, as well as the BetterHelp video platform. I find it as effective as in person therapy and much more convenient.

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.

Christy has been so helpful to me in the past few months I've worked with her! I've had so many therapist that I felt like didn't listen, but Christy always listens and even asks clarifying questions in order to help you the best. Also she is incredibly personable and is fun to talk to! Could not say higher praise for Christy!
