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.

Reviewed September 2024

Sonja is an incredible person. She has an amazing ability to relate to how I am feeling. She asked not just how I felt but where I felt it and that helped me understand my feelings a lot better. She gave me some really helpful tips to manage my negative self talk and to accept the potential of mistakes. Since our session, I have improved on the things I was struggling with at work by practicing the techniques she suggested. I felt an immediate sense of relief and peace when I was talking to her and I’m am looking forward to our next session.

I honestly did not think I would be understood or given the appropriate amount of listening and guidance-Sonja did it! She listens keenly with everything and made it easy for me to get into my first therapy experience-I highly recommend her!
