I only had one session so far, but when we spoke I felt like she understood what I was going through and was very supportive. She gave me a lot of advice about things in my past that could be affecting my mental state now, and ways to work on them. Overall I would say Cynthia gave me a lot to think about and I believe with more sessions I will be on my way to working out some of the problems I have been having.

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.

Cynthia was AMAZING! I wasn't sure how online therapy would go for me, but from the first 5 minutes of my first session with her, I knew the right therapist was recommended. She is SO incredibly knowledgable and helped me understand a lot about why I respond the way I do to various situations. She provided me with strategies that I could start implementing immediately! I can't wait for my next session with her!

Cynthia did more than just be a therapist, she became a friend through this process. This rapport is extremely important for a therapist and patient relationship, but after losing my mother and dealing with a significant amount of grief - Cynthia provided much-needed help. Especially when I was very afraid in many moments and needed someone to talk to. Thank you Cynthia! You have no idea how much I appreciate what you have done to help!

Honestly, She is amazing. I went through an ectopic and it messed with me so much mentally and emotionally. I began sessions with Ms. Wells and she not only listened but she also gave me some activity suggestions to help me channel my emotions and to practice gratitude. She also gave me advice as to handle certain situations and people. I’m honestly going to say representation matters. I feel heard, and important.
