Recent reviews

I’ve been seeing Dr. Lacy for therapy 3 weeks now. She is very warm and understanding. It feels easy and safe to share with her. She offers incite with more of a sweet humor or kindness than criticism. I look forward to our weekly sessions and am glad I was matched with her.

About online counseling

Affordable.

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.
