He is honest and warm, with a compassionate yet grounding perspective. He has life experience and much to share in balancing life between career and personal wellness- both challenging me to get out my comfort zone and taking time to slow down and make myself a priority in not just what I want but what I need. Im a workaholic and am glad he has been flexible and patient in staying with me, despite my sporadic schedule. I really appreciate that he gets right into it (how do you really feel) even if he hasn't heard from me for a month or two, so we dont have to start from scratch in warming up to things with small talk. He is laid back and patient and confident.

About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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.
