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.

Leo is so calm. I may be dealing with something so heavy, feeling like things are falling apart, and when I show up for the session, he conducts himself with such peace that it's almost contagious. He helps move straight through to the core of my issues even if I didn't fully understand them. He offers a blend of insight and tools I can use to implement the changes I need.

This is a wonderful service that os offered. I love the fact that we can be pick or be pared with a therapist who makes us feel the most comfortable. I was one who was very uncertain about therapy until I tried it. Grief is a process in which I now understand & Jeffero/better help has helped in more ways than one. I would strongly encourage others to give it shot. Thanks you guys!

Leo exemplifies experience, commitment, compassion, and personal responsibility balanced with accountability and developing skill sets to help improve self. My feeling is that he evaluates and then moves in the direction that helps the client acknowledge what, who, how, and what is needed to navigate beyond the negative affecting their life.
