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.

Dr. Cary is amazing!!! I’ve only had one therapist before her who didn’t take the time to get to know me or find ways to support me. Dr. Cary is the exact opposite she’s so sweet and makes me feel very important and valued. I’ve only had a few sessions with her, but within this short time, I feel I’ve learned different ways to better communicate, heal, and take care of myself. I can see she genuinely cares about my well being, and it’s not only a “career” to her. She’s very genuine, kind, and patient. Highly recommend. I love the holistic techniques she uses as well. She taught me some very useful mediation techniques my first session that have helped my anxiety since
