She’s made me feel extremely comfortable and heard. She’s given me the space I need to talk through my feelings and also the guidance I need to get through them. I’m very thankful for her!

Reviewed December 2023

I had been thru a couple therapists before finding Julia and almost lost motivation to keep looking for someone who would talk to me in a way I could understand and actually offer different methods without me nearly begging for resources like others iv worked with. I would recommend her and seek her out again for myself.

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.
