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.

Great wise amazing therapist and human being
Shelley is very caring and helpful, but I also think she is well matched to my personality. They way she describes situations makes me smile. I think we are well matched.
I’m incredibly grateful for the support my therapist has provided. In a short time, she has given me the encouragement I needed to push through challenges and begin becoming my best self. Her guidance is empowering, offering me practical tools that have helped me not just in sessions but in my day-to-day life. I’ve felt understood, supported, and motivated every step of the way. Highly recommend!
She is the best therapist I ever had in my life, she is warm and kind and she really has helped me through all my issues and I highly recommend her.
Ms. Shelley patiently offers tools and exercises to address the issues I am facing in a culturaly sensitive manner. In just one month of working with her, people around me have noticed the changes in my demeanor. I am truly grateful.
Shelley is such a great therapist. She offers a really safe space and she really makes you feel heard. She is a fountain of great advice and techniques. She is so professional but it's also like talking to a really wise friend when you're in your session. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
I have been meeting (virtually) with Shelley for approx 10 months and I’ve seen and felt a huge difference and shift in the way I do things, my thought processes and confidence. She allows me to talk things through in order to get to the root causes of some issues and is able to encourage and help me challenge my thought processes and ways of doing things that I feel/know aren’t in my best interests. I find Shelley empathetic, patient, non judgemental and committed to my betterment. I’m able to connect easily and speak freely on all subjects, especially on issues and feelings associated with social mobility, ethnicity and relationships (with others and self). Thank you Shelley!
Shelley is very patient and its easy to communicate a lot of issues to her - while breaking down everything one step at a time. Very professional and happy to have her as a therapist :)
I’ve been meeting with Shelley for just over 5 months. Our sessions flow naturally and easily and I trust her and can open up and tell my truth without fear or judgement. She helps me question and understand my behaviours and ultimately challenge myself, which is what I need at the present time. Thank you!
Shelley has been extremely helpful since signing up for Betterhelp. She has listened to my concerns, and given me the feedback I need to keep moving forward in life.
Shelley is always punctual and respectful in our sessions, I always feel heard and understood and that she is able to help me and come away feeling lighter for speaking with her.
She have been following and helping to develop some of my personal processes I highly recommend and appreciate her
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my talks with Shelley. She’s always on time for our video calls and offers a variety of slots. She is empathetic, concerned about my welfare and understands what I’m talking about. I’m comfortable speaking my truth/ my mind and sharing my opinions. Also, her being a woman of colour, I feel she understands topics that someone ‘other’ may not. Thank you Shelley.
