More about Covita
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LMSW
I am licensed in Michigan with 6 years of professional work experience. Since getting my MSW from Ferris State University in 2018, I have worked at Community Mental Health, as well as a school and medical family practice providing short-term and long-term therapy. I help clients manage mood disorders, stress, anxiety, trauma, and/or abuse. I take a skills-based approach with treatment, so I focus on providing practical tools to help each client access fulfillment and peace. I will meet you where you’re at with a non-judgmental stance and help you formulate goals that meet your own needs.

About online counseling

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.
