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.

Overall

Christina provides me with everything I need in my therapy sessions. Always compassionate, understanding and professionaI. I highly recommend her, she is wonderful.

Christina & I have only had the opportunity to have a single session. However, she was able to make me feel like we've known each other for a long time allowing me to really open up. She was very forthright & transparent with her areas & levels of expertise which I immensely appreciated. 10/10 definitely recommend.

Christina is great. I'm dealing with a lot of medical issues and she allows me a safe space to vent my frustrations and deal with the emotions of being sick.

Christina was very good and seeing through my ramblings and helping me see the real problem. It’s been extremely eye opening and exactly what I needed!!

Christina is very thoughtful and encouraging. She asks me useful questions and provides tools that I've put into practice.

Christina has helped me so much! I came into therapy nervous, not really knowing what to expect. She is personable, caring, friendly, and SO engaged! The way she had guided me to see things differently, for the better, has helped tremendously. She has given me the tools to work on many things myself between sessions. My relationships are better, I’m happier, I am better at controlling my emotions (anger, frustration) in situations that are not ideal. I’m a better Mommy and wife :)

Working with Christina has been incredible! She is knowledgable, approachable, kind, and has helped me immensely with my mental health. She provides a wonderful balance of listening, helping me reflect, and sharing tools to help me manage my anxiety. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Christina is very thought provoking and will ask timely questions...leading you down the path where you answer your own concerns.

Christina is a great therapist; she listens without judgment, offers advice without trying to influence your decision, and is very knowledgeable about the issues I'm working on. She has many exercises to go through, either during our sessions or on my own, that help to evaluate and progress on those topics.

Christina has been amazing for my mental health. I haven't felt this good for years. She listens and helps but also just let's me verbally work through things myself. Perfect mix of help.

She is splendid. She’s helped me adjust to adulthood and made me feel like a real human again!

Christina is great! She is an attentive listener and gives sound advice

Christina has been very helpful in the sessions we’ve had so far. She understands my goals and has shared different coping mechanisms or behavioral changes to make in order to help me reach those goals.

Amazing. Highly recommended.

Christina has helped me leaps and bounds. She’s always respectful and responsible. Even helped me schedule an emergency meeting when I really needed one. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly listens and helps you achieve your mental health goals.

Most responsive therapist I’ve had! She’s been great so far!

AMAZING. One simple question changed me. She asked that question and I needed to hear it. Thank you!!

Christina was a huge help to me in figuring out how to navigate the dating world and also helping me gain enough self confidence to put myself out there. I am super grateful and owe her quite a bit!

Christina is great! She listens very patiently, speaks with kindness, reflects on my growth, is excited for me through changes, and overall very very easy to talk to. I never feel silly, judged, or minimized. I actually enjoy getting to talk to her, even when the topics aren't easy, because she truly is so understanding and really does help me learn about myself. I've tried 4 other therapists over the years and Christina has been very welcoming, encouraging, and supportive. 10/10 great therapist + great gal!

Amazing!

I find Christina to be incredibly reliable and willing to listen. She is genuinely compassionate and interested in me as an individual.

Christina has been so awesome to work with from Day 1. She learned about me and continues to work with stuff in my past as well as new things that might pop up. I completely feel comfortable with her while chatting and it’s been a blessing!
