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.

Sarah is great to work with!!!
Sarah learned more about me and had an understanding of my needs within 30 minutes, where other therapists took 3 more more sessions.
Sara is insightful and asks me questions that really make me think.
She understands where I'm coming from and validates my feelings like a normal person. As a man I feel like I'm not able to do the things I need to but she reminds me that as a man I'm still a human and have feelings of my own.
