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 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.

Best therapist ever
Leah is so easy to talk to and nonjudgmental no matter how different our experiences may or may not
The best, most caring therapist i have come to know
She helped me accepting my obsession instead of distracting from it. With her help, I chose to embrace it and now I live free from it. I definitely recommend talking to her.
She is very good and professional
What other can I say other than she is amazing. Listening and making notes. Then the next session talking about the notes made and making progress on my feelings. She is by far the best therapist I have had. Although this might be her job I get the impression she is more invested in every individual. Actually caring about helping and finding a solution to my problems. I was feel 100% better after talking to her. As if a weight has been lifted. So thank you leah if not for yiu I would still be running on the hamster wheel
She takes time to listen to me and afterwards she helps me to find a sollution which will work for me
Leah is the best therapist I could have asked for. She is supportive, kind, understanding ans listens to me intently and makes me feel heard! Can't recommend her service enough, she's amazing!!
