Kari is amazing. She’s patient and funny, willing to deviate from topics if something comes up outside of our usual topics. She responds quickly when messaged and has enough options for sessions that it’s rare one would have to wait more than a week to have a session. Her advice is always on point and helpful. She doesn’t TELL you what to do but guides you to the answer or to the realization. She has ideas for days if you need some help figuring g out how to handle a situation. And she has a GREAT sense of humour. Which is important

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.
