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.

Brandy.... well she's so caring and such an easy person to open up too. I honestly feel like she's my family just after 2 visits. I can tell she cares deeply about my issues and wants to make me a better me! I can't wait to continue working with her!

Reviewed May 2023

I have felt safe talking to Brandy since my very first session. She makes me feel human and helps me grow by thinking and doing outside my norm. She always checks multiple times to confirm I’m okay with the direction and tasks we’re working on, and is ready to talk through or change direction if I have any hesitation.
