Dr Brown is engaged and invested in my journey that I have been on at this point in my life. She is honest and challenging me to think at the appropriate times always with the question asking me if I want to hear her perspective. She has been great with NOT giving me “answers” but challenging me to think and ending our sessions with “homework” to reflect and think on.

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.
