I have had a hard time doing therapy in the past. I never really thought that the therapist cared or that it would work. In just a few days, Deana was able to make me change my viewpoint. She truly cares, and checks in on me daily. She has put things into a perspective that I can understand and makes me feel comfortable enough to trust her and open up to her. She has great suggestions, and wants to help me not only mentally, but to physically feel better as well. I would recommend her to anyone!

Deanna has been extremely helpful, I quite appreciate the options of communicating with her. It takes away the intimidation of being myself and addressing my biggest concerns. I highly recommend Deanna for help with relationships and anxiety. As well as better help for therapy.

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.
