She is the most helpful and the best listener. She helps me explain why I feel certain things and asks me what I will try to do about them rather than pushing a narrative on what she thinks I should do which is a problem I’ve had before. She values my thinking skills and helps me cope. 10/10 therapist <3

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.

Stephanie is one of the most compassionate people I've ever met. She really wants the best for me and helps me figure out a very messy and messed up childhood, and how it is still effecting me today, and how to not only deal with it, but heal from it. She is amazing.
