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.

Paul was really helpful getting me through a difficult time. I would highly recommend him.
Paul listens with sensitivity. Replies with apt , sometimes surprising comments that bring out productive reflection. Good sessions.
When I first spoke to Paul, I was dealing with severe feelings of loss, anger and anxiety, that were debilitating and all consuming. Within just a few weeks, I learnt how to deal with these feelings, improve my sleep and feel genuine happiness again. Paul has been a massive part of this transition and has been an incredible support throughout so would highly recommend.
Paul is very pleasant to work with. He's respectful, provides great insights and is enthousiastic to help wherever he can. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist!
Paul has been amazing for me so far, I've felt comfortable and relaxed to share my problems and we've covered a lot. It's been great to understand and take action and Paul has been there every step of the way.
Paul is like a guy I now look at and appreciate his experience and expertise in life in general. He's truely a great guy and will listen and will talk about his experience to help understand and advice you with your progress. Wouldn't trade this guy for any other person to talk to every week. Makes me feel comfortable and after the session I feel this sense of relief like paul actually listened and shared his insights too. Overall great guy would love to get to know him better
Paul is knowledgeable, supportive and genuinely engaged in building ones confidence and enhance ones coping strategies. Feeling safe and cared for with him
