Online Phone Counseling
Video Skype Counseling

Phone Counseling With Jean LeStourgeon
Thank you for visiting my online video phone counseling information page. My name is Jean LeStourgeon and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Palm Bay, Florida. In addition to offering traditional office visits, I also offer video phone counseling services through skype.

Online video counseling using skype is an attractive alternative for many because...

People are busier than ever. Many people now work from their own home. We are all enjoying the convenience of purchasing goods and services through the internet.

Some professionals are offering online counseling because it is more convenient and accessible for many people. But, you might ask...

How do I know if online christian counseling is right for me?

That's a good question. Online video phone counseling may be appropriate for people who are looking for a counselor with specific expertise that they cannot find in their area.

Online video counseling brings the service to the individual. If you are considering this mode of counseling you need to know the advantages and the limitations...

Some of the advantages of video phone counseling are...

  • Safer -- entering into a counseling relationship is often a very courageous step for people...online video phone counseling can make that step easier to take.

  • Convenient -- you won't be spending additional time and money traveling back and forth to your counselor's office.

  • Comfortable -- because you are in the privacy of your home or office.

  • Anonymity -- No worries about running into someone you know in the counselor's office.

Some of the limitations are...

  • You may be more comfortable with and trusting of a counselor who is physically present.

  • Communication may be more difficult (especially if there is a strong accent or delays and distortions due to technological issues). Since your counselor is not present with you in the room it may be more difficult for her to understand what you are feeling.

  • Counseling by phone is not appropriate for people who are suicidal or homicidal, in crisis or struggling with serious depression or other serious emotional problems.

    If you or someone you love is in a crisis situation that involves harm to you or another person, phone 911 immediately for assistance.

  • It is likely not reimbursable by your insurance.

  • It is not appropriate for those who have difficulty expressing themselves.


I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. Psalm 32:8


How confidential is online video counseling?

With internet transmissions, though the risk is small, it is not possible to guarantee 100% confidentiality.

How much is counseling?

  • The fee for the first session is $135. subsequent sessions are $100.

How do I pay?

  • The first session is paid in advance through PayPal.
  • Thereafter you will be billed after each session through PayPal.
  • PayPal takes both debit and credit forms of payment.

How do I make an appointment?

If you are interested in online video counseling first you need to have access to a computer with a microphone and a video camera. For counseling sessions your computer should be set up in a location that affords you the safety, comfort and confidentiality you need.

Next, if you do not have Skype, you need to down load it. It's a free service when you are communicating with other people who have skype. This link will take you there.

Now, either call me at 321-720-8878 or complete the contact form below. If you do not hear from me within 24 hours please contact me again.

If after the phone consult, we both decide to move forward...

The next step would be you completing the necessary paperwork and emailing it back to me. This will aid me in getting to know you and how best to help you.

If you're ready to see if online video counseling is right for you, go ahead and fill out the form or call me at 321-720-8878. I look forward to hearing from you...
