Meeting with Timothy has been very beneficial to my life. I'm pretty reserved when talking about my emotions, but midway through our first session, I felt comfortable enough to open up about personal struggles I have kept to myself for quite some time. He truly takes the time to listen to you, and gives you time to think and process your thoughts without feeling the need to fill the space with conversation. I'm really fortunate to be able to have met Timothy. This has been the most challenging time of my life, and meeting with him has helped me tremendously.

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.

Tim has checked in on me throughout the week. This is a new experience for me. In the past I used VA therapy. Let’s just say I left for a reason.
