I can’t say enough wonderful things about working with Valerie. From our very first session, it was clear that she truly cared about my well-being, and she made me feel safe opening up about my deepest pain. I was struggling with the trauma of losing a loved one, and my grief felt overwhelming. I was also held back by deeply rooted limiting beliefs that affected my everyday life. Throughout our sessions, Valerie approached each topic with empathy, patience, and genuine understanding. She gently guided me to uncover the root causes of my feelings, helped me process my loss in a healthy way, and supported me in transforming the negative beliefs that had been shaping my life for too long. Her calm, reassuring presence created a welcoming environment where I felt comfortable sharing even my most difficult emotions. Over time, I noticed a true shift in my outlook. Thanks to Valerie's empathetic approach, I was able to explore my grief without judgment, embrace my memories with more peace, and gradually work towards every day waking up and challenging the barriers that once held me back...

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.
