Otis is a person who has been welcoming and understanding towards me. There is an art to being graceful while also being honest and challenging another's beliefs. I felt heard by him. He offered me a sober perspective on what I was going through and helped me bridge the gap between that and how I seen things myself.

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.

Otis has been incredibly helpful and supportive. I am so much better having taken sessions with him for the last 6 months. The difference in myself is night and day, I feel it everyday and so do all my loved ones. I am very grateful for Otis’ support.

Otis is everything I could have wished for in a therapist. As this is my first time speaking with a therapist, I didn't know what to expect and I initially felt some hesitation. But in our first session, Otis immediately helped to put me at ease. He rather quickly became someone I look forward to speaking with. His natural ability to ease any pre-existing tension and provide professional guidance with actionable steps to become a better me is valued highly. I look forward to continuing my sessions with Mr Carey.

Otis has taken the upmost care and consideration when discussing or addressing any issues. In just a few sessions, he has challenged my beliefs in a positive and professional way. The conversation flows in a progressive manner, which allows me to leave the session feeling as though I’ve been productive regarding the reasoning behind starting therapy in the first place!
