Victor is THE BEST!! He will help you challenge existing harmful ideas and self concepts and encourage proper boundaries and self acceptance, while artfully providing support and healing energy and insights. Victor asks the right questions and moves through complex issues and thought patterns always at the right pace. I have always felt safe, comfortable, and welcomed no matter what we are working on. I have been working through serious complex trauma with Victor’s support and in just a few months I have moved from survival to thriving due to Victor’s expertise. I am starting to feel so healthy for the first time. Victor has great skill, is a hard worker, and truly cares about his clients and their well-being. He is the ultimate professional and an outstanding counselor (and I have worked with many over the years). I would recommend Victor to anyone on their healing journey! Thank you Victor!

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.
