I've been married for 27 years and have two adult children. In addition to having the love of helping people, I enjoy traveling, hiking, camping, fishing, and hanging out with family and friends. I really enjoy meeting as many people as possible and learning from everybody.

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.

Five stars! He's the best
I have only had two sessions with Daniel Hernandez, but I can already tell I found the right therapist for me. I am overly excited to what else I will learn in his guidebook! Really happy I made the commitment to start therapy again. I have already found some mental clarity in such a small amount of time. I would really recommend him! Give it a chance.
