Saul is simply an amazing person and a great therapist. I started looking into therapy as a friend of mine suggested that I do. I didn't think I would get anything from it and didn't realize the benefits. I have to say that it's one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I have come to look forward to my call with Saul even when things are going well. We discover things I didn't see coming. He tells me what he thinks and gives me ways to work on myself, whether a project or some reading and reflection, but I always see a different side or approach to how I bring the discussion. I've often just been blown away with feedback that, after being given, makes me wonder why I didn't see it earlier. I am thankful and blessed to have met Saul.

More about Saul

  • 3 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

I have had the opportunity to work in this field for 15 years, first as a caseworker and eventually as a Social Worker. In my time working with clients in foster care I have had the privilege of helping youth and their families come back together with supports to ensure their health, wellness and ability to thrive. My approach is solution focused and informed by the use of cognitive behavior therapy to assist my clients in making decisions that empower them in their wellbeing. Overall, I would say that my experience has led me to understand that the road to a better life is determined in collaboration with the clients I have had the opportunity to serve and fortifying a clients network of support has always led to positive outcomes.

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.
