Arleia is the first and only therapist I have felt truly comfortable with. When I was having a particularly difficult time she made extra effort to reach out to check on me which I greatly appreciated in a time where I felt so alone. Arleia’s manner is consistently warm and comforting and my sessions with her always leave me feeling a lot more positive and relaxed. She makes extra effort to ensure not she understands how I’m feeling and helps me understand why I might be feeling a certain way. She’s helped me with a variety of coping strategies and I am much more able to cope with with day to day life, especially big life challenges. She really is brilliant therapist and I cannot thank her enough for all her help and support she’s given me so far.

I am an Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor for adults and young people. I am a Clinical Supervisor and Life Coach. I am licensed with over 4 years of experience working privately and volunteer for Mental Health organizations and primary schools. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, loss, suicide ideation, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges and life coaching . I also helped many people who have experienced physical/emotional trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioural, person centred, psychodynamic and realistic behavioural therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you feel ready for this step in your life I am here for empower and support you.

Looking forward to working with you!

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.
