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.

My therapist Dana Dodson is very professional and offers great advice but only after I have expressed my feelings and concerns and asking for her opinion. I highly recommend this therapist and the whole set up is convenient professional and effective.

Reviewed September 2022

Dana has been very professional and extremely encouraging! I love that she connects with me... it's definitely not like a "lie on a couch and tell me all your problems" situation, which is how I envisioned therapy for a good part of my life. I am so thankful to have Dana on my side to listen to me and provide tools that will help me be and stay healthy.
