Hello!

Greetings from sunny Florida! I am Vicki LaMare, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been working in Florida as a Social Work since December 2007! I know that you may have received a long list of potential remote therapist that you may connect with, so I will be very brief with this introduction...

As a "Military Brat" I have traveled the globe so I have taken every lesson I learned and I have incorporated into improving not only myself but others. I am so inspired by not just life lessons but by my "customers" as well!

So, I want to say this....You are picking YOUR teammate during this part of life's journey so take your time and pick the right therapist for you! Review our profiles and pick a few that stand out, schedule initial sessions and ultimately, make the best decision for who will be on YOUR team!

Best of Luck!

-----Vicki

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.
