Tyson listens attentively and will offer insightful feedback with suggestions and or questions to get to the root of what the real issue is. I have never felt like he makes judgements about anything I share, and I have shared a lot. His calm demeanor is comforting, and I trust him to give me the help I need. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

This has and is literally changing my life in a great way to help me become the man I already expect myself to be. I’m beyond happy with Tyson, he has answers, he helps me understand things in different ways, he’s an excellent listener, and you can tell he’s a fan of his job and it shows!!! Being a man and admitting you need therapy for mental Health reasons is harder to admit than anyone that hasn’t accepted it yet can even realize. Once I accepted that information I recommend it to everyone because it works. Great app, great experience, great therapist, for sure I’ll be a customer for many, many years to come.

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.

Tyson taught me a lot during our sessions and I felt heard. He has a very professional and calm way of explaining things. I highly recommend him as a Clinician.

Reviewed July 2024

Incredibly patient, thoughtful with responses, and incredibly respectful. Also demonstrates an effective balance of encouraging one to take responsibility of implementing changes in day to day life, outside of sessions.

Reviewed June 2024

Tyson is and has been very patient and understanding. He takes the time to ask the questions that need to be asked; doing it in a calming way and making certain I know and feel that I am in a safe environment.
