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.

Kind beautiful soul.
Very good person and therapist who has great insight. Has helped me with a lot of my anxiety and gives very sound advice.
She’s been absolutely amazing every step of the way. Her insights and experience has made my journey for bettering myself that much easier although it hasn’t been long, because she goes above and beyond to understand and help me with whatever I’m struggling with and I couldn’t be more thankful.
Marianne is a great therapist for me. I have borderline personality disorder. She is a very good listener and she makes me feel validated in my feelings and thoughts. I’m always looking forward to our sessions. I feel more stable since I’ve started working with her. I recommend.
Truly amazing. I can only recommend Marianne. She is very skilled, lsitens and seems to know exactly what is going on with you at all times. I'm very impressed.
I couldn't imagine having a better match than Marianne. I've had many terrible experiences with therapists, zero good ones. My experience with Marianne has been a tremendous blessing for me in more ways than I can explain here. I'm super grateful for her and BetterHelp.
With Marianne, I can say I finally feel seen, understood, by not only my therapist but in my experience with therapy as well!
So far, I am really appreciating my new therapist. She is always communicating with me. I am so thankful to have matched with her.
Marianne is a very comforting presence and I feel like I am understood and listened to in our sessions. Even though we have only just recently started our journey together, I can already tell that we will get along and I feel confident that she is what I need to improve upon myself in this stage of my journey.
She listens very closely
