"Expert telemental health clinician recognized by the TeleMental Health Training Certificate (THTC)"

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone or video. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $30 to $65 per session, 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.
As a practitioner specializing in chronic health issues, I routinely encounter people who feel overwhelmed by the circumstances of their lives— work stress, draining commutes, family responsibilities, all of which can result in little time left for self-care.  Online sessions enable clients with limited time or dealing with side effects from a chronic health condition obtain the support and help they need on a consistent basis.   Privately, I offer a simple, secure HIPAA-compliant Telehealth platform that allows me and my patients to use state of the art technology that feels as close to an in-person session as possible.
 Telemental health is NOT appropriate for those in major crisis. As a licensed practitioner of Missouri, Illinois, Idaho & Utah, I am able to treat people throughout these states using this technology platform. Contact me if you are curious about online therapy and would like to discuss if this option is right for you.
