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.

Very easy to talk to
Excellent active listening and helpful feedback!
Thank you for all your support! Very great listener and therapist. Would highly recommend
Dana has been a valued therapist from my first session. She’s responsive to my specific concerns and has some mad skills at listening with her heart and offering tools for my growth. I’m feeling better after just a few sessions.
Dana is a great listener and provides good perspective. I feel she is very respectful and brings a lot of experience.
I’ve had in person therapy before when I was younger and none of them seemed knowledgeable or cared nothing useful. Dana Thomart however has been the best therapist I’ve seen she is patient, kind, caring, informative and knowledgeable I’ve learned a lot in just 3 sessions with her. Such as grounding techniques, learning more about how or why certain behaviors happen, learning to breakdown a situation to keep from spiraling and so much more she’s super kind and helps with whatever you have in mind I feel at ease and more at peace after each session.
Dana is very knowledgeable and understanding. She guides me in the direction of my goals. I’m very thankful
I have only spoken to Dana a few times but I feel that she and I are like minded regarding my therapy needs. She has offered me options and different points of view , I feel that is an important part of therapy.
Dana is really amazing and I am very lucky for her to have had availability to see me. Highly recomennded.
