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.

I’ve been in therapy on and off for some years now and Ericka offered some practical/helpful tips our first session that I’d never heard before and that started helping me with my daily struggles imidiatley! I highly recommend her.

Reviewed January 2022

Ericka is awesome, she is a great listener and very committed to helping me make progress. She is very kind and willing to find what works for me.

Reviewed January 2022

Ericka is an amazing provider. I immediately felt she was trustworthy and compassionate during our first conversation and she has continued to reinforce this during each session. I am someone who has struggled to trust other therapists in the past, but Ericka is someone that makes me want to continue my journey.

Reviewed January 2022

After only three sessions with Ericka I'm already feeling better with things and have become more aware of things I'm doing that are causing my anxiety to be worse than it should be. Visiting with Ericka has helped me to better understand anxiety in general and its root causes. This understanding, along with guidance and homework from Ericka is helping me to combat those anxious feelings when they arise. As a Christian who has struggled with faith, I appreciate the faith based counseling and look forward to continuing to work with Ericka!

Reviewed December 2021

During our first session, I connected with her. She found what I believe the core is to my issue and gave me a great homework assignment. I'm very happy.

Reviewed December 2021

Ericka has already in such a short time grasped a true sense of me I feel. I've been able to more than open up and express my self to her so very quickly and her manner and ways of poking into what I say and things I've previously said and how she has tied things back and forth in ways to open my mind and allow me to further see in myself has seemed so easy and gentle and in a way I slightly struggle to understand jus yet. She's pretty darn good :)

Reviewed November 2021
