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've only had one session with Amanda so far, but I am pleased with her responses to my questions and concerns. I was even pleased that she responded to my journal entries. I knew they were being shared with her, but to have her respond outside of our session time was greatly appreciated and a surprise.
