I’ve had 3 sessions with Alisha and in that short time, she’s been able to challenge me in a compassionate way to look beyond the blame and move me toward being able to name the pain. I’m grateful for her expertise, patience, and active listening that results in giving me tools to practice with her and with the people in my life. I look forward to more sessions with her in the future!

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.
