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.

Reviewed September 2023

She gets me, checks in, is reassuring, understands, gives great feedback and I love our take away methods at the end of each session. So happy I’ve found someone who is relatable.

Reviewed August 2023

Dr. Dennis has the best rapport building skills of anyone on my healthcare team. She takes time to truly hear me, affirm my concerns, and remember details about myself that contribute to her patient care. Each session is tailored to addressing what I may need that day, whether that be tools to meet my goals, just talking about my life events and goal progress, or asking questions about things that I am not sure how to manage. Dr. Dennis is the best!

Dr. Dennis is a fantastic listener, mentor, and partner in the therapy process. I’m so happy to have been matched with her!

Reviewed April 2023

Out of a dozen or so counselors, coaches, and therapists I've encountered over the past three decades, Doctor Dennis has been the most helpful so far! She immediately honed in on my goals and got to work with me on attaining them. She shows empathy and challenges me at the same time. Her professionalism, knowledge, and know-how gives me a confidence I hope to carry with me after I've reached my goals and our time is up. I sense that it may all be taken care sooner than I'd expected!
