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.

Tracie is non-judgmental and welcoming in her language while we communicate. She also checks in on me when I haven't written for a few days. She is very supportive and asks good questions to guide my thoughts.

Tracie is amazing! The best ever! Thank you for all you do!

Reviewed April 2019

She’s the best therapist I have ever had. I don’t feel like I’m being lectured or that I’m talking to just a friend. I am talking with someone who is an expert, understand where I am, meets me there and helps me find a path, maps and tools to deal with my past, present and future. She remembers things and follows up with it.

I’m so grateful I was connected with Tracie. She is understanding, open minded, and a great listener. She makes me feel heard and has provided me with resources and tools to overcome my hurdles and better myself.

Reviewed November 2021

I got on to Betterhelp and Tracie just as my life was going through one big change in January 2020, after a decade of stability. A few months in Covid struck, and my life has been non stop change since then. I don't know how I could cope with all this change without her, and I'm so happy she's there with me on my journey of unemployment, a new job, moving cities, a new relationship...it never ends.

Tracie is fantastic! She is very attentive, and her advice has, on more than one occasion, worked very well for me. More than anything I value the fact that she is a great and compassionate listener.

Tracie is a compassionate counselor who takes the time to truly embrace the feelings of others.

Tracie helped me cope with the most difficult situation in my life. I was in a really bad place and having, well, not the best thoughts about my life when I started talking to her, but she helped me ground my thoughts and redirect all my emotions into positive actions. I am really thankful I connected with her when I did!

She's very open and warm and offers good resources to help with my issues. She very friendly and relatable. Would recommend Tracie.

Reviewed March 2020

She's very very kind and a good listener. She responds my message immediately even on weekends. I really appreciate the methods she recommended but unfortunately I was too agitated and impatient to try most of them. She is absolutely great and teach me about my condition. I always feel relieved after talking to her.

Tracie is a caring person, good at encouraging me to continue moving forward without discounting the challenges I am dealing with right now. I like that I can share with her "in the moment" via text. She responds in a timely manner & she even checked in on me when I was busy moving & she hadn't heard from me. We have a good rapport & I am looking forward to continuing to work through some life stressors with Tracie.
