Serenity Online Therapy Services and Fees

Phone Therapy, Video Therapy or Chat Therapy Fees & Payments
Email Counseling Fees & Payment
About PayPal Security

Scroll down to see my fees, but first is a description of each service I offer.

Phone and Video Therapy are real time, 50-minute talk therapy sessions by Skype video or phone. (If you prefer, we could also meet by cell phone if you live in the USA or Canada.) At the time of our scheduled appointment, I will call you via Skype video or phone service, which is always free if we both use Skype. Video Therapy and Phone Therapy offer real time, face-to-face or voice-to-voice therapy with the same flexibility in addressing issues as when meeting clients face-to-face in my office at the outpatient behavioral health clinics where I worked for 20 years. Skype Video Therapy requires a good high speed internet connection. Skype Phone Therapy can usually work if your internet speed is too slow for Skype video. Please go to Begin Therapy to request Phone or Video Therapy.

Chat Therapy is real-time, 50-minute, text therapy sessions (instant messaging) arranged by appointment in a private, secure chat room (Skype Instant Messaging) offering immediate feedback and the same flexibility in addressing issues as in face-to-face therapy. Thus, you will have a complete transcript of every session, which you can re-read to gain the most from each session. Please go to Begin Therapy to request Chat Therapy. .

Email Counseling is counseling through emails, thus feedback and interaction are delayed. One advantage, however, is that you can take as much time as necessary to compose in writing what you want to express and to contemplate what has been written to you before responding. Please go to Begin Therapy to request Email Counseling.

Online therapy can include a mix of Video Therapy, Phone Therapy, Chat Therapy, and Email Counseling. It really comes down to what works best for you. Please continue reading to learn more about Video Therapy, Phone Therapy, Chat Therapy, and Email Counseling .

Forms of Payment: I accept PayPal payments - credit cards, debit cards, personal checks and bank transfers - all through PayPal, the global leader in online payments, which means I never see your credit or debit card information. PayPal handles all of that. You do not need a PayPal account to pay through PayPal .

About PayPal Security: When you click on the BUY NOW button above, you will go to PayPal, the global leader in online payments, to pay for my services - at no extra charge to you. PayPal makes its money by charging me a commission, not you.

PayPal gives you the option of creating an account with PayPal or simply paying directly with your credit card or debit card. If you choose to create an account, the sign-up process is quick, easy, and safe. With a PayPal account you will be able to quickly and conveniently pay online for services and products worldwide.

PayPal uses industry-leading technology to keep your credit card information safe. It automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to PayPal's computer using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol  with an encryption key length of 128-bits - the highest level commercially available. Once your information reaches the PayPal site, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. PayPal servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the internet, so your private information is available only to authorized computers.

PayPal is committed to protecting the privacy of its users. When you pay for my services using PayPal, I will never see your bank account number or credit card number. I only receive an email from PayPal with the following information: the amount you paid, for which services, your email address, date of sign-up, and whether or not you have completed PayPal's verification process.
