About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

She is dope and super understanding. Incredibly supportive but will also challenge you, which is absolutely necessary if you're seeking growth.

Reviewed May 2022

Francine does an excellent job of listening, offering her thoughts and perspectives (which often blow my mind - in a very good way), and validating me while challenging me. So far so good!

Reviewed May 2022

She’s a wonderful listener. Someone who can really stay in tune with a condensed version of anyone’s life experience and dig into them with her probing questions. She stays on track and let’s the patient speak their mind. Unravels their past and puts them back on track. Wonderful and kind to a tee.
