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.

Ava is compassionate, insightful, skilled, and highly intelligent. She has met with me twice and helped me so much!
I was really nervous about getting signed up for online therapy, however Ava truly changed that. I immediately felt connected with her, she naturally has such a welcoming & relatable personality that just felt like talking to a friend. I know the Lord placed her here so I could connect with just the right person. She created such a safe space, where I felt heard & understood, a space where I felt like the one taken care of-which I needed. I would recommend BetterHelp & definitely Ava Johnson for anyone seeking therapy.
