Dawne is the perfect therapist for me. Nothing is off limits to discuss. She encourages me. She seems to know my issues before I know them, but somehow gets me to recognize them on my own.

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.

She is in tune with my needs.
My therapist is a great person and teaches me how to cope with my anxiety and negative thoughts. She’s always listens and gives positive feedback.
Dawne is the perfect therapist for me.
From the moment Dawne popped up on my phone, I felt connected to her. On our first visit it seemed like she immediately knew what my issues were. I was a complete emotional mess that day. Dawne reassured me that I was ok. Or would be. I have had other therapists in the past, good therapists. Dawne is better. She gives me work sheets that really help me. She is always attentive, encouraging and gentle. But she still, at the same time, helps me confront difficult situations and feelings. She is the best and with her help, I am better.
Dawne has been very supportive and has provided excercises for me that has helped me a lot.
Dawne is amazing.
Dawne is a fantastic therapist who has helped me with tools and mindsets to navigate my addiction, depression, and anxiety, which has provided me a sense of control. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a cognitive-behavioral mindset, changing your mindset to how you react to mental triggers that would otherwise prohibit you from living a whole and productive life.
Dawnes support and guidance has been invaluable to me in my life and career this year. I know that I would not have achieved what I have been able to, without Dawne this year. I feel seen, supported, heard and her practical suggestions have aided me greatly in my journey this year. Thank you Dawne
I have learned so much in the few months I've worked with Dawne. She is supportive and patient while I work through grief, trauma, and anxiety. She seems to know instinctively what helps me. I am using the tools she gives me, and the worksheets really help. Dawne is a perfect fit, which was my main concern.
I absolutely love talking to Dawne! I feel like I can talk to her about anything that is bothering me, there is nothing I wouldn't share with her - and I've not felt like that with other counselors before! I also love that Dawne gives the option for video call.
Immediately after meeting Dawne in a virtual session, I liked her. She understood my issues immediately.
Our first session was introductory but Dawne was very polite and listened to everything I had to say. I am really excited to be working with her and look forward to our next session!
I love having Dawne work with me she's kind and offers so much. If I don't say anything she reaches out. She has talked to me through giving her background on my issues. Overall recommendation 10/10 from me
