Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Miss Nakia she is amazing
After one session I already feel like I can make great strides with her as my therapist. She smart, compassionate, understating, and funny. I’m very optimistic.
Miss Nakia is always there for me always hears me - understands me and offers great practical and loving assistance to help me be my best and to have compassion for others - I’ve grown a lot in a short time period - shes my role model daily
Nakia is always so bright and so happy in our sessions. She is the energy that I have been missing in my life. I look forward to our sessions every week and I really genuinely love working with her.
She is very kind, great listener. When I was going through my depression/anxiety she was a great listener. She shares ideas/ methods to help cope with my depression. It feels so natural and effortless when we talk on our video calls. I feel she is very compassionate and understanding especially since we have been through similiar difficulties in life.
Nakia makes me feel heard and safe. I’ve worked thought a lot of bags with her and feel grateful for her support!
She's pretty cool. I feel like I can talk to her.
In my culture we’re not big on therapy. Nakia made this process super easy. I felt like I was speaking to a good friend with no judgement. I can truly open up and find my way back to my true self. I would recommended Nakia to any and everyone. Such positive spirit and great energy. My husband is even calm with the experience and he’s a tuff cookie to crack. Thank you so much for what you’re doing for us and have done for me.
Great job.
Thank you Nakia for always being responsive and agreeing to support me during this journey. I am forever grateful.
Nakia has been doing an amazing job helping me and my wife structure our life on a solid foundation of trust and reliability. Two things that we have had trouble with for several years. Nakia also has a lot of good tips for families with young children, having worked with children in the past. I highly recommend Nakia for any couple looking to move their relationship to the next step.
Love her! Nakia is AMAZING! She is so sweet and really takes the time to listen to whatever You have on your mind/heart. She also gives the best advice and is so caring and warming when getting you through some really tough stuff/trauma. Definitely recommend!

The therapist Nakia Alford-Sunday is the very best. I would rate her as 10 although the previous page was submitted as a 9 which was a total mistake, and I was not able to retract it. I would highly recommend her, and I think she is excellent!
Nakia is absolutely incredible. I was very skeptical about seeing a therapist but I am extremely glad I am seeing one now. Nakia challenges me enough while still being supportive and patient. I truly feel blessed to have met her and to work with her.

Help a lot of my problems. My confidence and self esteem
I'm happy to say that my introductory session with Nakia Alford-Sunday was a very pleasant surprise. The match seems great, and I anticipate the results will be good!
Nakia is helping me get back my sense of hopefulness about my life - a little bit more of the optimism and can-do excitement I remember having when I was a child. I’m thankful when I hear her laughter - strong and exuberant.
Very insightful, understanding and easy to talk to. I appreciate her guidance and help.
