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.

Meeting Coretta changed my life. I don’t know what I would do without her. Talking with Coretta is as easy as talking to my loved ones or family. She knows and remembers what is going on with my life and me. When I disappear because my anxiety and depression gets the best of me she always checks up on me. I know that she genuinely cares about me. I’m forever grateful that we got connected. In the past finding a therapist I connected with and actually helped me was so hard, but we connected and it was just the perfect fit.

Coretta is the therapist you didn't know you needed. She always listens and keeps the entire session focused on your mental health. Coretta never let's me forget about myself and always encourage me to do the work. I love working with Coretta, and she has been instrumental on my new mental health journey. Whether a good day or a bad day, I can hear Coretta's voice in my head telling me that I have to save myself, or I have to do the work. I then push forward with confidence making choices to save myself, and I come out winning every time. I am so grateful for Coretta and would highly recommend sessions with her.
