About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Matt continues to be the one constant in my life that I can count on to help me when I need it. He listens, gives me a safe space to express anything that I’d normally shy away from speaking about and most of all understands what it takes to work with me. He is still the first therapist I’ve had that has lasted longer than 3 months.

Matt continues to be an amazing support to me as I recover from an abusive marriage, schizoaffective disorder, and the general ups and downs of life.

Reviewed January 2024

Matt is easy to relate with, can understand you better than you may think he does and doesn't make you feel like you're "in therapy"...that you're chatting with a good friend that happens to be licensed to give out advice and help. He will work with you in whatever format/manner you're comfortable with. He is the first therapist in 30+ years that I've stuck with longer than 3 months.
