Emily has been very kind and patient from the beginning. What has helped me is her calm demeanor that allows me to bring down my energy and focus on my goals we are working on or focus on my thoughts and feelings. Her expertise in the science behind her field has been very fascinating to hear and learn because it helps me understand myself and the human body better where I don’t feel outcasted or like I am just strange but more like our bodies are wired a certain way and there are exercises to try to make myself feel better and my body feel better

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.
