I started therapy with just the hopes of having someone to listen not expecting more. My therapist turned out to be more.

Congratulations and welcome. You are about to take an important step to a better well -being. I have experience in working with families, children, adolescents, and adults for more than 18 years. My initial counseling experience was in a sexual assault crisis center and evolved to working in mental health positions assisting migrants, geriatric patients, and individuals of all ages. While working with individuals, I also have experience in group therapy and family and couples therapy. I am compassionately straight forward to help you achieve your therapeutic goals.

About online counseling

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.

Overall rating:
I started therapy with just the hopes of having someone to listen not expecting more. My therapist turned out to be more.
Pretty nice person.
Magdalene is so sweet, patient, and caring. She’s so great at finding the underlying issues and gently unpacking them. She will circle back and point out my progress to show me how far I’ve come.
One session in and I have thought a lot about her suggestions and recommendations. She is personable and compassionate. I am enjoying our partnership.
She’s awesome!
She’s very professional and flexible, I’d recommend her to anyone! She’s honestly taught me quite a bit about myself.
She is very helpful
She is a great listener and has good insight to what my issues are.
I enjoyed my sessions with Magdalene. She was really understanding with my situation and reaffirmed with me that what I was feeling in my environment was not normal. She helped me open up my mind and that this situation I was experiencing is too much for me and suggested that I get out of it. She encouraged me to not think too much about it when I don't need to, and it's really helped.
