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.

Lindsay is so good, she has helped me on so many levels. She is understanding and kind and really lets her personality show through instead of being robotic. She puts me at ease and makes me feel seen and heard. She's changed so much for me and everyone around me notices the difference
Lindsay was amazing. She made me feel heard, something which I really needed. She was always empathic and understanding and I really appreciate our sessions.
Lindsay is great! It’s hard to put into words how good she is at her job, so all I’ll say is that I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Lindsay is super supportive and shares numerous strategies to manage my professional and personal challenges
Lindsay has been great. Always there to listen and offer advice. She makes me feel very comfortable even when discussing things that I wouldn’t normally be comfortable about. I feel very lucky to have her as my therapist
Working with Lindsay has been a transformative experience. She has a unique ability to help clients connect with their inner selves and find healing. I felt genuinely cared for and supported throughout my therapy journey.
I would highly recommend Lindsay as your therapist. She is calm, understanding, and supportive and she made me feel comfortable straight away. I always leave my meetings feeling like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I always look forward to my next one.
Lindsay has really helped me look at my anxious moments differently and has given me so many resources and skills to help calm me in times of high stress. Anxiety is something ive struggled with for a long time, but I’ve never understood the “hows” and “whys”, which added to the stress of it! Now that i have the skills, thanks to Lindsay, to see these moments as an opportunity to breathe and take some time for mindful thinking, the heightened moments are much more manageable.
Amazing and fabulous match. Lindsay 5 stars
Very understanding
Extremely reliable and patient
