Benefits & Costs of Online Consultations
Here’s what you can expect from this service
Most generic “advice” services available online are typically run by amateurs and self proclaimed “sexperts” many times lacking sufficient specialized training and advanced degrees. Caveat emptor--let the buyer beware. While often well intended the possibility for inaccurate, incomplete or biased information always exists whenever untrained non-professionals attempt to deal with complicated and sensitive subjects beyond their abilities. When it comes to such important matters as your personal sexuality and relationships, it’s essential that you know you’re working with a competent and skilled clinician you can trust.
Unlike generic services, Dr. Michael uniquely brings over thirty years experience in private practice as a practicing clinician, sex researcher, graduate school professor of human sexuality and counseling psychology, author and expert in both the fields of sexology and relationship counseling. Your emails are received, read by and responded to by Dr. Michael personally and by no one else. Response lengths vary according to the question asked, however, on average range from 300-1000 words, though often more extensive whenever needed. Replies are guaranteed within a few days at most once payment has been processed. Whenever possible emails may be answered within the same day.
Benefits of Internet Consultations:
* Privacy and confidentiality
