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.

Shannon is amazing. I will be honest, this was my first time using BetterHelp and I was extremely nervous but Shannon truly creates a safe space. She will be extremely honest with you, which has created more confidence for me to allow the raw emotions and thoughts that I am having to be expressed unapologetically. Shannon does care and wants to also see you be confident in the ways you are improving your life. If you are scared or nervous, don't be because Shannon will care for you each step of the way.
Shannon was extremely helpful in helping me overcome anxiety and stress. She was attentive, kind, funny, and supportive of me in many ways. I cannot express how grateful I am to have been a patient of hers. She is a wonderful person!
She is the best!!!!
Shannon opened our eyes to not only what was going on in our relationship, but what was going on in our lives as individuals. The whole process was wonderful! She saved our marriage! Through what she taught us, we have learned to examine our actions and reactions, treat each other with compassion and grace, and how to find love again! Amazing experience that we will always be thankful for!
I think you’re the best
Amazing therapist, would recommend if you like a therapist that is not afraid to be honest with you.
Shannon has been an amazing help for me. She is so good at seeing people and connecting with them. She’s insightful, caring, patient and clearly has a heart for people. I’m so happy that the app connected us. It made a huge difference in my world to be brave enough to speak to someone and build that trust. Shannon is someone you can trust to meet you at your most vulnerable.
She is wonderful. I feel completely comfortable speaking with her. I feel very blessed to have her in my corner
Shannon definitely relates to the stress and anxiety I experience and I appreciate that so much.
Shannon is great. What a perfect fit for what I'm going through right now. She listens well, challenges me, and is quick with follow up. I could not have asked for anyone better. Honestly beyond my expectations.
She has been very helpful
She is fantastic. I feel very lucky to have been placed with her
Great
Shannon is knowledgable, insightful, and kind. She immediately understood the gravity of my experiences and has responded with compassion and helpful suggestions to help me process and reflect.
The superior quality of care and service Shannon provides reflects her competency and her passion for what she does. She is prompt in communication and timeliness when starting and ending sessions.
Shannon is a great therapist. She does a wonderful job of making me feel really comfortable. Coming into therapy was a new experience for me and I was very anxious about it, but Shannon calmed my nerves immediately. She may tell the honest truth and push me to places that are uncomfortable, but I know she has my best interest at heart. She assigns homework and send me tests to take to keep me engaged, which I find to be very helpful. Shannon always makes time for me and responds in a timely manner. Overall, she is a great fit for me and she is very talented at what she does.
Very kind & empathetic. Gets to know you personally & allows you to get to know her in return.
