Maria really listens and actively participates in the conversation. I asked for homework and she has provided some each week, she also sends me information very relevant to our conversation. This helps me reference back and keep up actions to help weekly from the sessions!

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.
