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.

Charles cares for my opinion also cares for my feelings. I can easily talk to him and he understands my point of view
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a therapist, Charles is one of the best I have ever worked with.
Dr. Spivey has been great at seeing what I really need and gently making me aware of it, steering me in the general direction without being forceful about it. In my case, it may take a while to get there, but I believe I'm on the path.
Charles is genuine, and open book and straight forward. I love that and makes our sessions very productive!
Absolutely the best experience, also my second experience but my favorite I feel understood
Charles is by and far, the best therapist I have had in MANY years of therapy. He listens and understands and then helps me to adjust my behaviors and thoughts to improve my mental state and quality of life to a healthier level.
Really helpful and understanding
I really enjoy talking and texting with Charles. So far he’s been great.
Charles helped me by relating to what I was going through and listening
Charles is a phenomenal therapist and well worth your time. He's helped me through some of the darkest moments of my life and has always been the voice I need to hear.
