Sara is absolutely outstanding. A great listener, nonjudgmental professional but will give it to me straight if she sees I'm doing something to contribute to my own misery.

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.

Hi Sara is a very nice person and shows a genuine concern to my questions and helpful to set good mind thoughts and encourages progress .
Sara is absolutely outstanding! She has really been able to see me for who I am amidst some of the difficult goals I'm trying to achieve despite difficulties I have as a single parent trying to provide for my family. She's an excellent listener, lets me process through things and helps me reflect on my life without giving unsolicited advice. Her support has meant the absolute world. I am finding ways to continue sessions with her hopefully outside of my initial covered sessions through my school. She's an angel! So thankful for her encouragement and honesty!
