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.

Reviewed November 2023

Sarah helps me work my way back to my center as well as giving me helpful tips on how to find my center on my own.

Reviewed December 2022

I truly appreciate how she allows me to share what I need to share, always listening and then helping me understand why I might feel the way I'm feeling. She is great at giving examples that may help me understand from a different perspective. Which in turn gives me a chance to reflect and maybe change how I choose to respond to different situations. I highly recommend her. I'm really glad she is there for me in such a positive way!
