Clymie has helped me a lot in such a short amount of time. I can honestly say I feel very heard while talking to her. She remembers all the stories and experiences I have which makes me feel like she really puts in the effort to listen to me. Clymie asks questions about things that I don’t really think of but they help me realize a lot of things. I highly recommend her!

ABOUT ME
I am a licensed clinical social worker in the states of California and Texas, with over 40 years of experience working with veterans and their families at the VA hospital in Los Angeles and with adults, children, adolescents and the elderly in an out-patient community setting. I earned a master of social work degree from (USC) University of Southern California in Los Angeles. I am a compassionate, emphatic, and solution-oriented professional dedicated to providing exceptional care and implementing effective treatment to my clients. I specialize in developing healthy relationships, coping with life transitions, treating symptoms of depression and anxiety from a variety of sources. I thrive at being an effective communicator, motivator, and advocate with the ability to establish rapport quickly, build trust, interact with and relate to individuals on all levels.

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

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.
