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.

Very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.
She’s been a life saver ❤️❤️ she actually understands me and listens, the most influential woman in my life in the best possible way :)
Dr.Sanchez is absolutely incredible she has thought me how to love and forgive myself she completely understands the needs I have and how to best do what works for me
I have been in medicine a long time dealing with the highest acuity patients, trauma, and disaster response medicine experiencing the worst. Thankfully, being connected with Dr. Sanchez has helped me with recognizing the unusual PTSD symptoms and accepting & understanding a way through to getting better. She is extraordinary, I look forward to continuing to work with her to get to the other side of my challenges.
Dr. Sanchez always responds quickly and has been helpful earlier in the process than I would have thought. I would highly recommend Dr. Sanchez.
I just love her - she is empathetic, intuitive, really smart, super cool and a solid lady. Can’t do better than Dr Sanchez for my money- cheers, thanks a lot.
I wanted get help and was very hesitant. I began with better help and at first the therapist I found seemed capable but I didn’t feel a connection. Then I switched to Dr. Sanchez and she was very direct and competent about my issues. I finally feel a sense of relief that I have found someone to help me.
Dr. Sanchez has helped me work through a very trying time in my life. From finally dealing with the loss of my mother, to identifying past traumas, to navigating my very busy life. So much has been lifted off of my shoulders and it has made me a better version of myself. Thank you Dr. Sanchez for helping me find myself again and for all that you do!
It’s hard to find a good therapist who you can really relate to but that was easy with Dr. Sanchez. I felt better from the first session,
Effective Listener, Compassionate, Understanding, very productive sessions.
