I tried therapy with multiple therapist and I started to become very discouraged. I felt like I wasn’t connecting with anyone. I decided to give better help a last shot at therapy and I am so grateful that I did. I was able to connect with Sandra. She has made my experience, extremely positive. I feel very supported by her, and I can’t express enough gratitude. Thank you for helping me work through my thoughts and making me feel safe. That’s all I ever wanted to feel in therapy. She is truly wonderful.

Sandra has been wonderful to work with. She keeps me accountable and prompts difficult discussions, while creating space for me to be comfortable having those discussions. She has also given excellent resources for me to continue work between sessions

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.
