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.

Gayle is amazing. She is warm, caring and professional. She makes me feel truly heard, follows and remembers the complex details of life and gives concrete practical advice. She has really helped me work through a complex, mess of feelings from childhood issues, work conflicts, parenting and relationships. I would highly recommend her!

Gayle is intelligent, insightful and kind. This is my first experience with therapy and I was very skeptical, but I have to admit that Gayle has helped me to analyze my issues and think through proactive ways to approach them. She's been very openminded and willing to adapt to whatever approach makes me feel most comfortable. Thanks Gayle. You're responsible for a palpable and nearly immediate improvement in my quality of life

I feel Gayle has taken the time to really understand me, my headspace, my surroundings to offer me the best advice and guidance

Reviewed March 2024

Gayle is a star! I had never done therapy before so I had no clue starting off. I originally came to therapy to help navigate through a difficult time after some bad decisions and break ups. I feel much better, more self-aware and I have got my sparkle back. Gayle has been very patient with me and challenges me in a really direct but supportive way. 110% recommend to others :)

Gayle was amazing from the first session. She has been a tremendous support for me over the last few weeks and has helped me to began a more positive mindset :)

Reviewed February 2023

I had no idea what to expect going in, as I've never done online therapy before but now I'm finding it really helpful. My therapist always responds quickly and having the message board available 24/7 is fantastic for mentioning things as soon as they pop into your head. This is a great service that I wish I had started using sooner!

Gayle is amazing therapist! Takes time, listens and remembers what was said in the past sessions. Also summarizes the challenges and looks for possible causes. She is emphatic and present in the moment. I highly recommend her..and that i say after changing few therapists ( not on BetterHelp).
