Katherine is AMAZING!!!

Reviewed November 2024

The alphabet with Shakespeare behind the keys would fail to encapsulate what Katherine Barton has done for me. There are things beyond understanding to accurately illustrate what we have done in the few sessions we've had thusfar. Couldn't recommend more highly.

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.

She’s been so helpful

Reviewed May 2022

Katherine listens well and offers great insight into my current situation. Not only does she make me feel heard and understood, I also walk away with tangible exercises and resources to stay accountable with.

Reviewed May 2022

I feel really heard and she helps with progress!

Reviewed May 2022

I've had two therapy sessions with Katherine and I already feel the improvement. She's a good listener and her suggestions have been helpful.

Reviewed April 2022

I can't say enough kind words about Katherine. I had a breakthrough session during our very first session, and apparently (according to friends and family), that is very rare. I hope I can give another review later on, but so far, my only complaint is that I can't give her a hug! She's given me so much helpful advice and things I can implement into my life, and I'm just so happy to be working with her.

Reviewed April 2022

Katherine is great! She listens and gives great advice.
