Great therapist

Aug 2024

Carter is very professional, knowledgable, caring and compassionate with me during our sessions, so I can safely say he is the same with all of his clients. He knows when to listen, interject, and inject humour into situations accordingly, and I am very happy with my level of care that I’ve received. I would recommend him to anyone without a second thought.

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.
