About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

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.

Rob was able to help me isolated the issues I was dealing with. I would recommend therapy to help focus on problems that affect your work life.
My therapist has been an incredible source of support during one of the most challenging periods of my life. After experiencing sexual assault, I was struggling to feel safe and understood. What stands out most is his remarkable responsiveness he's always available and responds almost immediately when I need support. From our very first session, he created a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where I feel genuinely heard and respected. His quick and attentive communication makes me feel valued and cared for, which has been crucial to my healing process. He listens with empathy and helps me work through my trauma at my own pace. His understanding, patience, and immediate availability have been instrumental in my recovery journey. I would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking support, especially survivors looking for a therapist who truly listens and is consistently present.
Working with Rob has been a truly positive experience. He is very responsive and creates a safe space where I felt comfortable sharing. His guidance has been very helpful.
