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.

He really gets interested in your story week after week he proves that

Dec 2023

Over the past year and a half, working with Kyle has been a tremendous help in navigating some major life decisions and career changes. What I appreciate most about working with Kyle is that he is a genuine guy; not my stereotypical ideal of a therapist perched in an ivory tower and is hard to relate to. Because of Kyle’s down to earth nature, it has been much easier for me to build trust and make the most of this experience. I am very grateful to work with Kyle.

Kyle is very easy to talk to. It's like you are talking to a friend. He gives great feedback and support.

Jan 2023

Kyle is a genuinely good guy. Extremely relatable. I'll admit I was afraid to give this a try. From the jump I was put at ease by Kyle. I felt like I was just chatting with one of my buddies who I highly respect or an older brother I look up to. Great guy, great listener, great advice.

Jan 2023

Excellent therapist thus far. Tells it like it is, opens my eyes. Really helps me see things that are already inside me, but just need help coming out!

Jan 2023

Kyle is a professional without being too stiff. His insight and approach are the best I’ve had in twenty years of therapy. I would recommend him as a wise and thoughtful therapist that has a broad understanding of human suffering and how to overcome it.

Sep 2022

Kyle has been wonderful but I realize I need a face to face meeting to be able to commit to doing the work.

Sep 2022

Really awesome, very understanding but also honest and direct.

Aug 2022

He's been really great! I was looking for a therapist that was very direct and honest, but still considerate. In my previous therapy experience I felt that one topic was rehashed over and over in a session by my old therapist instead of moving on to different topics and it was very frustrating. We get a lot accomplished in one session, he is very understanding, and I feel that the conversation is very natural. Nothing feels forced or uncomfortable and that's very important to me. I plan to stick with Kyle for a long time!

G.E.·Jul 2022

He’s the right person for me to talk to at the right time.

B.R.·Jul 2022

Kyle really helps me understand different perspectives to look at when choosing my path. I really feel he is a supportive Therapist that genuinely cares about his clients.

P.H.·Jun 2022

Good listener

C.H.·Jun 2022

So far Kyle has been a big help in my journey to better myself. He listens well, respects my thoughts and offers lots insight that truly has an impact. He does not just say “do this”, he understands that self work is being aware and present and is a continuous journey. I’m saying that, he offers what has worked in his trials and tribulations and relates them to myself in ways that could help me

J.A.·Jun 2022

Kind and insightful.

S.O.·Jun 2022

He was not helpful and when I explained my problems he just told me to go to a hospital and that he could not help me. Thanks, Kyle.
