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.

Cheryl Edwards is a great therapist in every sense of the word. Not only is she professional, timely, and consistent-- she is attentive, listens and remembers what I say session to session, tracks and helps me set goals, provides unique perspective and helpful advice, and more. Unlike my experience with other therapists in the past, she not only listens to what I discuss, but provides helpful input and always encourages moving forward. Each session ends a step ahead of where I began. I highly recommend Cheryl as a therapist!

Reviewed December 2023

I find it easy to talk to Cheryl and I find her responses and engagement to what I share shows she is listening, paying attention, and understands what I am saying even when I am not sure I am making any sense. Cheryl puts what seems complicated in simple terms, so I can understand her as well. She responds promptly to my text messages via the app.
