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. 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.

I love Shell!

Jan 27, 2024

Overall

I really appreciate Shell’s insight. After our session, I was able to view a situation in a different light. This had a huge impact on how experienced the world. I returned to myself and put some fears, that once felt overwhelming, in their place or even to rest. After experiencing something that was challenging for me, I’m finally feeling at ease, more optimistic and centered.

Dec 09, 2022

Overall

Shell is always very attentive and supportive of me. She calls me on my bad habits and helps me to see the patterns in a way that shows me the balance of me being both an individual and a product of my environment and upbringing. She helps me to be accountable for my actions because of and despite these truths. I learn so much from her after every session.

Shell has taken the time to really get to know me as a person. Even when I’m apprehensive about bringing a topic up, she has a way of making me comfortable and drawing it out of me. She has helped me navigate through new chapters of my life. She gives me things to consider and tools to effectively make decisions. Shell has been an instrumental part on my journey of self love and growth.

Can’t stress enough how great of a therapist Shell is. She’s kind, attentive, thoughtful, and intelligent. Shell has got me through some tough times and I’m forever grateful for her.

D.R.·Jan 01, 2022

Overall

Shell is able to perfectly balance professionalism and relatability. It doesn’t feel like I’m talking to my therapist. It feels more like a trustworthy and non-judgmental family member or friend. Just within this short time, she has given me the tools necessary to tackle my obstacles and grow through difficult situations. My sessions are filled with not only useful insight, but laughter and sometimes much needed tears. I look forward to each session and my continued growth.

C.A.·Aug 30, 2021

Overall

Shell is amazing! This is my first time receiving therapy. And my primary concern was I would be paired with someone who didn’t understand me. I’ve only been in therapy for about 4 or 5 months, and I’m already feeling much better. I still have work to do, but I never thought I would have made this much progress in such a short span of time. I owe that to Shell!! She is so patient, down to earth, understanding, raw, and real. Just what I needed. She’s so easy to talk to and I feel like I’ve known her for years. She has truly been instrumental in helping me through the toughest time in my life.
