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, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Thomas calls it like he sees it. He consistently provides unbiased feedback and will not hesitate to tell you what you need to hear even if it isn’t what you want to hear. Thomas is a kind and supportive therapist and creates an excellent environment for fostering personal growth allowing the client to find their own way through things simply guiding and advising that journey along the way. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thomas is by far the best therapist I've ever had. He's very understanding, but also saw through the things I would tell myself to convince myself that I was "fine" or that I really wasn't good enough.

Thomas was the most fantastic therapist. I am sad that he will be leaving by the time I can come back to therapy. I wish you all the best in your journey. Thank you for being part of my journey. You gave me the courage to overcome many challenges, including grief, trauma, barriers and school. I appreciate you always encouraging me to fight for equity, inclusion and justice towards people who refused to see my potential and worth. The professionals who mistreated me at the school will be held accountable, and I no longer have them in my life for them to discriminate, stigmatize, retaliate, and punish. I will be switching universities where I am honoured and valued for my beautiful differences. My new path will be to become a creative writer about mental health and addictions to educate and inspire others to change their lives for the better. Thank you for the courage, skills and strength you gave me to be confident with my new beautiful beginning. I wish you all the best, and please do reach out if you do end up coming back to online therapy! :)

Thomas Barlee is a dream deliverer. He took my hand through the sorrow and the laughter of life and when the tears had dried, I had beautiful visions I could not have imagined before. He is down to earth and humble. He is warm and willing to get in the trenches with his patients. He helped reveal a side to me that I didn't know existed and he did it from the other side of the planet (I live in Australia). I highly recommend this man for whom I am very grateful.

I teamed up with Thomas a few months ago, after a breakup completely destroyed my heart. Thomas has been extremely supportive, and helped me get it back together piece by piece. Thomas also asks me the right questions, so that I come to conclusions I otherwise wouldn't have. Every session with him has been a delight, and I feel like I develop further each and every time.

Thomas is a gem. He is a balance between grounded logical thinking, understanding, and getting to the source of what the root cause is of what's going on. I personally get caught up so far in my emotions I lose balance and can't see the bigger picture of how or why I'm overwhelmed or stressed. He is able to directly teach me to see the areas in my own life where I'm contradicting my own core values and so naturally a stress response would occur . It's really quite simple when broken down so easily. Lots of aha moments. He has great questions that stop me in my tracks and I have to look deeply within to find the answer of such a introspective question
