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.

Porshure is a great therapist. She is very knowledgeable and down to earth. I feel like I am making great progress with all the tools suggested to me by her.
She is smart and took the time to get to know me and my many situations before giving me obtainable goals for our next session, she didn't just start telling me what to do, she took the time to understand not only where I am but how I got here
She’s very good at seeing the whole picture and being encouraging. Her recommendations are on point for what I need to help with my experience. I have never done well with one on one therapy before and I feel like I’m getting a lot out of this because we are focusing on the core issues
