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.

I love Shelly! Sometimes I don't realize I'm lying to myself, but she calls it out immediately, and we've only had 2 sessions. She reads people very well and offers assertive, good advice without overstepping or being aggressive. She's extremely respectful and I can tell she's "heard it all," so I'm not afraid of judgment.

Shelly really listens, and quickly understands what I’m trying to share. She has excellent insight into the complexities of relationships and difficult personality dynamics. Her recommended worksheets and exercises have been quick and easy, not overly time consuming, but tremendously illuminating and productive for me. She gives me the control over the goals for my therapy, and is very open to helping me set and work toward those goals. She is warm, caring, skilled, friendly, professional, highly effective, and open. She’s everything I could want in my therapist. Thank you Shelly!
