I think your first visit or 2 you are skeptical, I think this may be normal. But my therapist has helped to bridge a connection even when we were more disconnected by distance of contact with her encouragement and it appeared to be understanding. These are things that reeled me back into my interest to want to talk with her.

Reviewed September 2024

I can honestly say after my first session with her, I absolutely love her and love the fact that I can message her at any time. She’s been so amazing and I’m so glad that I was paired with her.

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.

Emily is really great! She listens to me and provides me really great ways to help with my depression and anxiety. She got me to attend my early morning classes and that is a big deal for me. She’s a great therapist and I’m so lucky to have her.

Outside of our appointments she messages me to check in on me.
