About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

Super knowledgeable and respectful. Easy to talk to and passionate about helping. So thankful I've met her.

Reviewed August 2023

LaQuita Suggs Is a great listener. She has paid close attention — and I assume took good notes — back to my first session. She’ll bring up something I told her in the beginning of our time together, in a super helpful way. She’s very knowledgeable about the subjects that apply to my situation, and she challenges me in a kind way that helps me identify blind spots. I’m having a great experience with LaQuita.

Reviewed August 2023

LaQuita provides the right amount of empathy to help me feel cared for and understood, but also gives it to me straight, including things that might be hard for me to hear or accept, but that I need. It has helped me see sides to my situation that a friend or loved one may not have the insight to or the courage to speak up about. It's nice having LaQuita in my corner. I've learned a lot from her.

Reviewed July 2023

I never had a therapist who was able to identify my thinking errors, show me what to do to correct them, and also help me with questions about life and dating as I’m experiencing them in the moment. She also gives great homework!

Reviewed June 2023

LaQuita has been instrumental in the last couple of months in my emotional well-being. She is very knowledgeable about job related laws and how to protect oneself from a hostile environment. Most importantly, she has provided tools to take care of myself and my well-being on what to learn about myself and thrive/overcome any type of childhood trauma, core beliefs and assumptions that are triggered by being in the work environment. She is highly recommended.

Reviewed June 2023

LaQuita is exceptional. She has so much knowledge and listens intently and remembers everything I tell her. I am 60 years old, and have been in and out of therapy since my 20’s and she is one of the best I have ever had.
