Alyssa is extremely easy to talk to. she makes me feel heard. She has a perfect balance of listening and giving feedback. Most importantly, she gives me a new perspective on things that i never thought of and helps me understand why things are the way they are and why i have certain emotions towards situations. she's highly knowledgeable and i would recommend her to anyone!

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.

Alyssa is excellent. This is my first time doing solo therapy as an adult and I've been blown away at how helpful it is. I am a kinder and more patient person. Alyssa is wonderful at asking the right questions to help you think about things a bit differently. I always leave our sessions feeling empowered and at peace.

Alyssa is amazing. She’s such a genuine person that she’s easy to open up to. She has such a positive and bubbly energy but she also knows when to be serious. She doesn’t just sit there with a notepad and zone out while you’re talking, she gets involved in the conversation and she cares. Would definitely recommend her.
