About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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. Ranging from $60 to $90 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.

Ellen was extremely helpful with my anxiety. I was very overwhelmed with multiple things going on in my life and she helped me navigate through my priorities. She also helped me learn how to control my anxiety and have good ways to manage my thinking. I am very thankful for her help!

With just 4 sessions of working with Ellen I have benefitted a lot. I like that we could come up with small exercises with tangible results. She understood my situations very well and was very encouraging.

S.H.·Jul 07, 2020

Overall

I have worked with Ellen for about two months and on a weekly basis we would go through and discuss various issues that I’ve struggled with. Ellen would dissect the information and offer supportive advice and helpful exercises to practice and I feel much better than when I first started seeking counsel.
