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.

Tim is a great listener, and I feel like they are good at giving me something to work with. When we talk, I almost always feel like I have a better sense of direction after talking opposed to beforehand, and although the price of therapy makes it difficult to always feel the value of therapy, there definitely is value, and Tim is a great example of how good therapists can make the difference between therapy being worth it or not for someone like me
