I had a pleasure working with Mr. Atkinson. He was patient, understanding and really listened to everything I had to say. He had me do tasks to test beliefs I had about myself, he helped me follow a routine for myself which was very helpful and he provided a safe space where I could release my anxious thoughts. He would also help me articulate my thoughts better and see exactly what I was feeling and where it was coming from. I highly recommend him.

About online counseling

Affordable.

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.
