I have only been meeting with Charity Sophus for a few weeks and I have already began to see improvements. She patiently allows me to ramble and never talks over me. She is truly a treasure to talk to.

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.

I love working with Charity Sophus! Mrs. Sophus is diverse in her practice and responds to my many needs in therapy. She has found ways to address many of the things I want to work on and I feel that she would do everything she can to help me. Mrs. Sophus meets me wherever I am in my week and sends me materials that help me stay on track. I greatly appreciate what consistent communication and counseling have done for me and would definitely recommend Mrs. Charity Sophus!
