You've finally decided to do something about it — the anxiety that follows you into bed, the relationship stuck in the same argument, the version of yourself you keep meaning to get back to. Maybe you've been putting this off for months. That's okay. Our clients are adults, teens, couples, and families who are ready to stop just managing and start actually healing — all from wherever they feel most comfortable. Counseling With A Difference is 100% virtual, which means real, effective therapy without waiting rooms, commutes, or scheduling gymnastics.
Our curated team brings together CBT, DBT, EMDR, somatic, mindfulness, and psychodynamic approaches — matched to you, not applied to everyone. Sessions run longer than the standard hour. Between sessions, clients can request a 15-minute check-in call. We are LGBTQ+ affirming and work with individuals, couples, teens, and families.
The hardest part is usually just starting. Once you reach out, we take it from there — carefully matching you with the right therapist so the work can begin. You don't have to have it all figured out before you call. Just take the one small step of reaching out.
