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.

Excellent therapist! Very thoughtful and helped me work through my personal and relationship issues. Highly recommended.

Reviewed August 2023

I switched my therapist to Evan and was really happy with the decision! He's super easy to talk to (Whether it's the super traumatic scary stuff or video games). Evan is also great with checking in on my progress, keeping up with his research/treatments, and holding me accountable. I genuinely look forward to chatting with him every week and am making some great progress with his help.

Evan is a great therapist. He is relatable, down to earth and experienced. I completed many goals with him in three to four months and didn’t even realize it. He always responds swiftly and has appointment times that fit my full time job schedule, which is harder to come by than you might think. I am very lucky to have been paired with him. I also like that he is from the same state as me. He is like speaking to a friend that holds you accountable without blurring and boundaries.

I have really enjoyed meeting with Evan. I will admit, early on it was hard for me to get the momentum to actually start meeting with someone, but after meeting with Evan I have found a rhythm each week. He is a calm, understanding presence that is easy to talk to.
