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.

Reviewed August 2023

Jilly has been such a kind, caring therapist. She has helped me realise my boundaries, what I stand for, why I feel anxious and how to help it. She’s been so empathetic and so understanding. I’ve learnt so much about myself by working with Jilly and feel so much more like my old self again. She’s the best!

Reviewed July 2023
