More about Esther
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I enjoy seeing people do well. Life can be challenging and navigating turbulent times, daunting. It seems like our world is in a state of unrest-are you questioning who you are, and where you belong. Coping with it all is no easy task. Whatever the source of your unrest, be it emotional distress, anxiety, employment/relationship issues, and trauma/tragedy, I can help. I approach counseling from a Christian perspective. I believe the word of God has many remedies for improved quality of life. Let's collaborate creative strategies to turn your life experiences into purpose.
You are where you are, and I am glad that you have chosen to seek support. Your well-being and growth will be my top priority; thus, I will challenge faulty beliefs, and give honest compassionate feedback to empower you into positive behavioral changes.

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.

Esther is awesome!!
She’s been extremely helpful and open with me
i love working with Esther, she provides helpful feedback and great insight into my thought process
Esther listens intently to me and gives me feedback that helps me see things from a different perspective. She then encourages my feedback in response. You can tell she really does care.
Great! Really listens and asks insightful questions
My experience with Esther Dubique has been fantastic and helpful. I have no complaints, only good things to say. I have appreciated the insight and support, and I think her sessions have helped me through a very stressful time in my life. Unfortunately, COVID has worn me down the past 3 weeks, and I'm still unable to speak for any length of time. For now, I am taking a break from therapy to focus on my physical health.
I have just started seeing Esther within the last 3 weeks. She responds to my questions, journal entries and concerns very quickly. During our sessions, she is very compassionate and understanding and asks me thought provoking questions which I find myself “pondering” various solutions over the next few days. I look forward to continuing to work with her.
Esther is warm, kind, and professional. I appreciate how she asks inquisitive questions for me to reflect on how I think about things. I have had a hard time connecting with therapists in the past, but not with Esther. I am grateful we connected and highly recommend her.
