I have only been with Sandra for a short time but I thoroughly enjoy our sessions. She is kind and compassionate and makes me feel understood and listened to and that in itself is invaluable. Sandra is helping me with things I didn't know I needed help with and I come away from each session feeling lighter. I can't thank Sandra enough and look forward to our future sessions together.

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.
