Marcy has been fantastic to work with over the last few months. I have tried counseling through a few different modalities and counselors before, but nothing that I was comfortable maintaining long term. Marcy has been able to help me work through many concerns (family, work relationships, educational, career trajectory) in the time that we have been working together. I truly look forward to talking to Marcy during our sessions because she is honest, sincere, easy to talk to, genuinely listens, and provides attainable recommendations.

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.
