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.

Dec 2022

Nicholas Sanfilipo and I have been working together going on our 4th session. I feel as we continue to get to know each other, I will become more aware of areas in my life that need specific attention. So far in what we've discussed, he has helped me outline and reflect where I'm at and what my vision may be for my future. It is very nice to be able to bounce these life experiences off of someone whom can help guide me in a direction of better understanding of who I am and how I want to be within my healing and growth. Thanks, SJ
