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.

Great therapist!
Winifred has a view on the world that is refreshing and backed by experience and wisdom. She is easy to talk to and we always have very good conversation
Winifred is an amazing . I always leave each session with a positive attitude and outlook on life . You will not regret ever having a session with her . She is the best ! ✌
She is really well spoken and brings up topics that may be the root of my OCD before I even think about it but explains it very well. Is also a kind soul who really wants to help.
She was very empowering and encouraging and I felt listened to & understood right off the bat
I appreciate everything my therapist is helping me with.
Winifred ODriscoll clearly has a tremendous amount of experience and dedication to providing positive steps toward mental health, with kind sensitivity.
Great therapist! Listens well, great advice, is recommend her to anyone!
Winifred has really helped me to dissect what I’ve been experiencing and provided tools for understanding, acceptance and learning.
I like how Winnie is thinking differently about therapy and doesn't default to the dogma in this field. It’s important that patients hold themselves accountable and take action with the guidance of their therapist.
If you want real and highly perceptive, look no further.. Winifred is unlike anyone I've spoken to as a therapist. Most therapists will sit back and basically just listen and offer little to no input trying to help you get to a conclusion.. that is just not my taste.. I like solutions.. answers.. understanding.. and she provides all that and more with such a compassionate, devoted and personal outlook.. She even provides examples in her own life.. and I just love that. She is a kind-hearted, tell it like it is, courageous woman who clearly has gone through a lot in her life and has brought wisdom to the table along with her knowledge clinically. She was made for therapy.. with her understanding and seeing into a problem with such clarity Winifred if for you if you like the truth, no sugar coating.. and real true direction on where to take things.
She is amazing, understanding and always available when I need her.
She is amazing, I’m not going to lie I just started therapy so I haven’t had that many appointments and I’ve been busy so I really haven’t had that many appointments.. but she’s an amazing person to talk to and really helps you work through everything.
I cannot speak highly enough of Winifred. From day one, her warmth and expertise created a space where I felt truly heard and supported. With her guidance, I've experienced profound growth and gained invaluable tools to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. If you're seeking transformative therapy, look no further. Highly recommend!
She goes beyond what most therapists do and truly has a passion to help you realize your potential to pull through ANYTHING. She changed my life.
I have found speaking w Winifred to be very helpful. She is clear in her thinking, clear in her explanations and sympathetic but not coddling. I will continue to talk with her regularly,
