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.

Overall rating:
Yolanda is a wonderful intentional listener and provides unique perspectives to help me dig deeper into my thoughts and patterns to better understand self.
Very kind, caring. She acknowledges you and validates your experience.
I was extremely nervous to start therapy but Yolanda creates a safe, fun, lighthearted, and open space for you to share whatever you want with her. She works you through issues with goals, plans, exercises, and journaling! Highly recommend her to anyone entering this world or wants a judgement free and open minded modern therapist.
In a short amount of time I felt seen and heard. We got straight to the root of my issues and she was able to provide me with different resources and solutions! I would work with Ms. Pearson in the future and recommend anyone to work with her as well.
