She is easy to talk to. I feel very comfortable with her.

Reviewed June 2024

Summer has helped me understand things more clearly and has helped me grow from my past experiences in just THREE sessions. She is a great listener who is genuine and just wants to help. She gives me homework and the resources to read up on to better understand my feelings and actions. Finding a good therapist can be tiring, but I’m so grateful that Summer and I fit so well. Finding a therapist that’s as considerate and educated as Summer on the first try, is a home run! ☺️

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.
