She is amazing. It was a blessing to work with her. She was very kind and listened and very present. She has great insight too and works with you in your process and not how she thinks it should go.

Lisa has been wonderful, she really listens to your needs and tries to use tools to help you the best way possible. I really like to write down my feelings and then talk about them. Lisa has been sending worksheets to dig into issues deeper and then we come together and talk about it. Just a better outcome than in person therapy, I feel like a person, not a number.

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.

Lisa has been probably my best counselor so far. She understands not only what my issues are and what tools and strategies are fitting for me to work on them.
