I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you, and believe on using the strengths as a foundation to help you improve your overall quality of life. I prefer to take a holistic approach to working through psychological issues, but will also adjust the techniques I use to help meet your needs in collaboration with you.

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.
