Reviewed February 2023

Working with Rhonda was a fantastic experience. We established rapport pretty quickly, and I was appreciative of that. Whether it was via chat or in video session she really took care to listen and get to know me, but quick to challenge me when I'm full of it. We got to a point where I could identify what I was doing to myself, and we came up with a few changes (some small, some big) to practice in my daily life. After a couple weeks, I was able to notch a couple personal victories and I feel optimistic about what's possible going forward. 10/10 would recommend.

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.
