About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

Reviewed August 2024

I came to Kim in a position of deep loss from a death of a parent and amidst a relationship breakdown. Kim was supportive, attentive to my needs and an essential piece in the healing process of my grief. Kim enabled me to break down the barriers I had formed and help draw connections between the many relationship troubles I had experienced throughout my life. With Kim’s support and encouragement I am a stronger, and more resilient individual who finds joy in solitude as well as in company. I cannot thank Kim enough for the positivity and rationale she has brought to my life. I will be forever thankful.

Kim had been super for me. I really needed someone to speak to and reflect with. It has been eye opening reflecting on myself and learning from the past. I am heading into the future with positivity and excited for what's to come. Kim was always there when I needed her and send me on lots of helpful material. I am in Australia and she is in the UK and she was very flexible for our meetings. Would definitely recommend.

I couldn't have been matched to a better therapist. Kim is very professional, empathic, and understanding. She always offers me several methods and ideas of coping strategies. I really appreciate Kim going the extra mile to think of me between our sessions as I've never had that with previous therapists.

I am on my third session with Kim & she is amazing. I started this process with a muddled bunch of reasons as to why I thought it would benefit me. Kim was able to immediately identify the main factors & we started work - it has been so enlightening to talk with Kim & have already felt a huge difference in my day to day life.

I can highly recommend spending some time talking to Kim, having worked with her across 12 sessions recently. I found Kim to be clear, insightful and understanding, as well as very friendly and I felt immediately at ease in her company. Kim guided me with compassion as we worked through what I brought to our first session, as well as helping me discover other connected stresses and behaviours which I hadn't considered. Kim really helped me, and I enjoyed our time together.

I couldn't have gotten a more perfect match with Kim! She listens to me, understands me, knows my way of thinking and behaving, and always makes recommendations that are within my means/limits. Kim is professional and respectful. I know Kim has experience in various areas of therapy and this is clear from my discussions with her.

I have only had a few sessions with Kim but I already feel that we have a great connection. I have been able to be very honest with her and she has been very supportive and caring. I love that I can add daily entries to my journal that Kim is able to access. I look forward to our sessions and know that I am in safe hands.

Working with Kim has been an incredibly positive experience. She is an excellent listener and has helped me reflect on my past, set goals, and develop new skills to manage life's challenges. In just a few months, she was able to identify the automatic thoughts my brain creates and has been helping me keep the ones that serve me well and rewrite the ones that no longer reflect who I want to be. She is also very responsive and does a great job of checking in between sessions, asking thought-provoking questions or sending me relevant exercises or podcast episodes to provide extra tools to process life’s challenges.

Im thankful that I was matched with Kim. With my anxiety issues I wasn't sure how the therapy will go, also because english is my second language, but she has so much experience especially with anxiety and she put me at ease from the first moments and we did great work together. Basically I turned my life around in these weeks and I will be forever grateful for this. I'm highly recommending her!
