About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.

Steve is So impressive! He knows his stuff at a very deep level and his real value is being able to apply that experience to my specific situation.
Steve has been super supportive of my situation, has followed up multiple times and given me things to work on between meetings. Highly recommend
Steve is amazing. Literally, nothing more needs to be said. I've had at least 8 therapists/couple's counselors over the years, and Steve is the best one by far.
Best Therapist! He listens & is Very Helpful!
His insights are helpful and he is very considerate when suggesting things I might want to work on.
Steve has been nothing but kind and thoughtful and respectful. He understands my needs and understands what I am going through and puts all his efforts into helping me in whatever way he can.
Honestly when I first saw Steve’s profile his portfolio instrested me in way the previous many did not at all. I decided to just view my first session as a conversation. I found out quickly his years of expertise was an unbelievable asset. After a more than a dozen therapists I truly believe Steve is one of a kind.
Steve is an amazing person. He has helped me so much and I will always appreciate him for that. Thank you.
