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.

Wonderful therapist! You will have to participate and work at it but Melanie will be there for you, guiding, making you think, and supporting you. Best therapist I have ever been to!
Mrs. Melanie Martinez has been extremely empathetic, and honest and has given great recommendations/guidance throughout my therapy experience. She has helped me brainstorm ideas, organize my ideas, and create a game plan going forward. She sees me. She has helped me come to love therapy and I look forward to chatting with her weekly.
Melanie is a great therapist. I really appreciate her parenting advice for my special needs child. And I really like that she shares some experiences from her own life. It’s like talking to a friend every week.
Melanie is an amazing therapist! She lets me know that if I’m having a hard time I can just message her and she usually responds right away. She also lets me know when she’s taking time off and when she won’t be available so that’s nice to know so I don’t feel ignored. She send me mindfulness skills so that I can try to apply those to my everyday life.
I am doing couples counseling and one on one. I have had an excellent experience so far as well as my husband ! She is a great listener and we love that she gave us tools and some homework straight out of the gate ! We also enjoy having a spiritual needs met ! We believe in Jesus and she sends messages during the week to check in and mindfulness tools. We highly highly recommend
