Rainey is great! I appreciate her time and listening. We’ve only had one meeting but I felt validated when introducing myself and my concerns even though I feel like I’m all over the place.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Rainey has always had a great listening ear without judgement. I’ve been seeing Rainey for about 6 months now and my understanding of my fears and sources of anxiety has improved, as have my coping mechanisms. I’ve been very satisfied with Rainey’s compassionate care as a client.

Rainey is my first therapist ever. She listens, is empathetic and really helps me through the different scenarios that I discuss with her. She is an amazing therapist. I look forward to my sessions with her. It’s also super convenient to be able to talk to someone through an app via video sessions. If you want a relatable therapist choose Rainey…

Having our first video call was so nice. I was even like 20 minutes late…she was right there on the computer ready for whenever I hopped on. It felt so genuine, the conversation. Way more authentic conversations were taken place in our one video call than all of my hours of face to face therapy believe it or not!!! She is very sweet and I am excited to learn more about how she became the person she is and have her help me see things clearly in a confused world i guess

Reviewed June 2021

Rainey is a deeply compassionate person who is quick to understand your concerns and ask meaningful questions. Therapy with her feels very constructive and progress focused, with a good balance between having space to feel and working on steps towards growth. She leads the conversation and makes you feel at ease that you can let an expert guide the session, instead of having to figure out how to guide it yourself.
