Antonio is the best therapist I've ever worked with! He has helped me identify cognitive distortions that have caused me to live in a state of perpetual misery. I am starting to make plans and create a new life after everything that's happened. Things are looking much better. I realize there is a lot of work ahead, but now that he's given me some options and shown me what I can do to heal from it all, I feel motivated about life instead of being so anxious I couldn't even put one foot in front of the other. Thank you so much Antonio.

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.

I am just getting started with Mr. Pacheco so I’m still learning how his therapy and strategies work but so far he’s very kind and supportive and listens to my issues and seems genuine about his responses. So as for now so far so good I’ll post an update after I’m more experienced with his treatment!
Antonio has given me so much confidence and really helped me through the hardest heartbreak of my life! I am more empowered and hopeful from the tools he gave me. He will give it to you straight and help you see the things about yourself you may not be realizing and I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you, Toni!
Antonio is very respectful & I can see that he genuinely listens to what you’re saying. He makes it easy to be comfortable sharing things about my life. I value his ability to ask thought provoking questions in a politely challenging way to assist with introspection. This was my first time ever doing therapy & would definitely recommend.
Toni has been great! He’s patient with my quirks and an excellent listener! When I go down a rabbit hole and try to psychoanalyze myself, he’s not quick to either shut it down or follow my narrative. I have benefited from his coaching and have a more peaceful life as a result. Extremely grateful. Please don’t pick him, as I don’t want to have to schedule around your sessions lolol.

I’ve had two sessions with him and I really like him. I did immediately. He’s been very helpful and kind and he’s given me lots of insight and he instantly made me feel comfortable. I’d recommend him to anyone. I feel hopeful.
Antonio has been great. He's willing to listen to me about everything with no judgments at all. I feel that I can speak to him about everything that I am going through with no reservations and he always gives me ideas, strategies and little things I can do to help me feel better, improve my day or situations that I am going through.
