The Best Things in Life: Love, family, happy children, faith, meaningful work, relationships, career success, health and security. When our good lives are interrupted by STRESS, confusion or conflict; we need a listening ear. We need to see a path leading to answers and relief. The listening ear, the understanding heart and the facilitation of path finding this is what I do for a living. I have been well educated and trained to do this, I do it well and I don't ever want to stop. I am not the answer lady. Yet I do have the skills to listen, the heart to care and the knowledge to teach. Counseling helps to repair connections, settle conflicts and find hope for a path forward. Yet, it is not designed for people who need it. Counseling is designed for people who want it. People like you who are seeking, not settling. Only people brave enough will make the effort. Let's talk.

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.
