If you are interested in online counseling, the first step is to complete the intake form and consent form. See above for links.
Video/chat
I use Skype for secure video and chat; click here to schedule an appointment. My Skype user name is jerbeall.
Secure Email
I use HushMail for secure email. My HushMail email address is jebeall@hushmail.com. If you send an email, I will generally respond within 2 business days.
Once I have received the initial paperwork, you are ready to send your first email. Email therapy can be as short or long as you would like. As I address issues, you may decide you want to go deeper; we can easily do that by continuing with email or even adding chat sessions to the mix. You are in the driver's seat. If one email gives you the information you need to resolve the presenting problem, that's great! If you find you want more exchanges, that is also an option.
If you do think you want a series of emails, I recommend that you purchase a package of 4 or 8 email exchanges. My standard rate per exchange is $35.00, but I offer a discount for a package of 4 at $125 or a package of 8 at $240.
My rates for online counseling are as follows*:
Service Cost
30 minute video session or online chat $60
60 minute video session or online chat $100
Therapeutic email exchange $35
4-pack of email exchanges $125 (save $15)
8-pack of email exchanges $240 (save $40)
