Mary Beth has helped me through a particular stressful juncture in my life. She helped me reflect on the causes of this stress & gave me several different techniques to use when handling this stress. Speaking with her weekly has helped me find clarity & peace with some problems that have plagued me for years. Mary Beth is kind, caring, attentive, a great listener, & pragmatic. I would recommend working with her.

Mary Beth has a good listening ear & an ability to direct the flow of conversation in useful & illuminating ways. She is practical & has useful feedback that has helped me not just during a session, but in the week following. She has helped me become more self-reflective in a positive way & helped me see that I don’t need to be so tough on myself. She is kind, caring, & reaches out each week between sessions with brief messages. Thank you, Mary Beth, for your help & expertise.

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.
