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.

Toni has put in so much work to let me know that she is here for me in such a short amount of time. Only two sessions in I already feel like I’m going to progress more than I have with any other therapist that I’ve seen in the past decade.

Toni is very relatable and personable. She has a lot of life experiences that give her the expertise and understanding to help you sort out your issues. She is a wonderful ear to tug on and a great friend to have in your corner. I would be happy to have Toni as a personal friend if she wasn't my therapist.
