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.

Excellent therapist
Lindsey is extremely supportive and personable. She was a great match for me. I joined therapy because I was grieving over the loss of a loved one. Lindsey guided me on how to grow and be my best self.
Lindsey is great. She is such a powerful addition in my life. As a therapist she is a greta resource for me to learn and see insight in what puzzles me. As a pair of ears she is open to listening and helps me to guide thought processes while she makes me feel heard. And overall, Lindsey has helped me grow in many away inside and outside of our usual sessions. Unpacking after therapy, revisiting and checking in and at times even sharing a song the way a good friend does after a conversation. I cannot recommend Lindsey enough!
I am so thankful to have Lindsey as a therapist and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially people going through modern dating and relationships. She is easy to connect with, truly listens, and makes me able to see things from a more high level and positive perspective.
