Work With Me
Real therapy. Daily support. On your terms.
I’m Zalman Nelson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of in-person and video-session experience. For the past 7 years I’ve been delivering real clinical therapy through daily text and audio messages.
Not a chatbot. Not a platform. A real licensed therapist in your corner when things actually come up.
Here’s what it actually looks like in practice: You send me a text or audio message about something that came up, a conversation that didn’t go well, a feeling you can’t shake, a moment that triggered something.
I listen, read, and respond personally with real clinical guidance that helps you understand what’s happening and what to do with it. Not next week. That day. While it’s still alive. Sunday through Thursday. In the moments that actually matter.
This is async support. Meaning you message when something comes up and I respond within the day. Not live chat. Not instant. Something better. A real licensed therapist who reads everything you send and responds thoughtfully every day.
Depending on your plan this also includes a monthly session with me by phone or video, and a monthly summary of the work and progress we’ve made together so you can see your own growth over time.
Start with a free week.

Daily Messaging Support Plans:
All plans include personal responses from Zalman. Available Sunday through Thursday.
Check In Support — $100/month: For people who are doing well and want support available when they need it. 5 personal responses per month. Use them whenever something comes up. No fixed schedule. No session included.
Steady Support — $200/month: For people who want consistent weekly touchpoints plus a deeper monthly session. 2 personal responses per week. One 25-minute Focus Session per month.
Full Daily Support — $400/month or $120/week: For people who want real daily support as life happens. Not just once a week. Daily responses Sunday through Thursday. One 25-minute Focus Session per month. Monthly progress summary. Check-in if you go quiet. Cancel anytime before the end of your first month.
Most people pay $600 to $800 a month for weekly therapy. Four sessions. No support in between. With Full Daily Support you get daily guidance throughout the entire month plus a session with me. More support. Every day. For less.
Full Daily Support + Weekly Session — $600/month: For people who need both. Daily support in the moments that come up and a dedicated weekly space to go deeper. Daily responses Sunday through Thursday. One 50-minute Deep Dive Session every week. Monthly progress summary. Check-in if you go quiet. As you build your own insight and skills over time the support naturally adjusts. What starts as daily messaging and weekly sessions often becomes less frequent sessions as you grow. That’s not stepping back. That’s the whole point.
Individual Sessions
Available as standalone sessions or as add-ons to any plan.
Focus Session — 25 minutes — $90
Deep Dive Session — 50 minutes — $160
Already in therapy?
Daily messaging support works beautifully alongside your existing therapy. You keep your weekly sessions and use daily messaging for real-time support in between. Many people find the combination more powerful than either one alone.
What people say:
“I didn’t realize how much I was carrying until I actually said it out loud. I thought I was just stressed. Turns out I’d been running on empty for years.”
“I came here during one of the biggest weeks of my life when my regular therapist wasn’t available. Having someone available every day when things were time-sensitive made all the difference.”
“You can’t shove everything into one hour a week. This is different.”
How to get started:
One — connect with me on Signal, a private encrypted messaging app.
Two — complete a short intake form and consent document.
Three — receive a personal welcome message and your first practice.
Four — share what’s coming up. I respond personally within the day.
