Clarissa is a great person to talk to. She is gentle with her approach and she is skilled at what she does. She takes time to get ty know her clients and too understand their struggles. Working with her has been great while dealing with past trauma and working towards making a better future for myself.

Clarissa was very helpful for me. She gave me a thoughtful and different perspective to a specific issue I was dealing with and gave me supplemental materials to look at and reflect on between sessions. She was easy to talk to and was easily adaptable to my schedule and what i needed

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.

Clarissa is a very knowledgeable and attentive therapist. She has lots of tools she's used for her clients and gives great feedback, insight and ideas without being judgemental or rude. She approaches things with empathy and understanding and is refreshing to go to each session and come out feeling like I have something new to think about and improve.

Clarissa Amorino is a wonderful therapist. She listens with kindness and curiosity. She challenges my negative narratives and encourages giving myself credit where it’s due. She acknowledges what I do well and teaches me things that can help me progress. She fosters an enthusiasm for healing that I’ve been missing for a long time. She responds within minutes every time I share something. It’s very reassuring having such a communicative and encouraging therapist. I’m grateful to have been paired with her. I look forward to every session!
