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.

She is amazing at what she does, and I love the passion she puts into her work.

She is very knowledgeable and professional. I feel heard!! I had seen a therapist previously but now I realize that not all therapists are the same- My life has gotten back on track after just a few months of working with her. If you are on the fence about starting counseling - reach out to her she really put me at ease. I look forward to our sessions.

I been working with Dana for about two weeks now but she had been very helpful and supportive. She responds in a timely manner and checks in with me if I don’t message her.

Dr. Hall is very understanding and non-judgmental. She sends me all the information she can that she thinks may help me. If she does not hear from me she lets me know she is still there when I am ready. It is so great to know you have some one there ready to listen.
