I can't thank Michelle enough for her kindness and attentiveness to everything I have to share. She's not only helping me understand that it's okay to be different, but also that I am not alone.

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.

My experience with Michelle has been really positive. She always listens carefully and picks up on the small but very important elements which she will also bring up in later sessions to help link everything together and find similarities. She's helped me unpack, decompress and move forward from a range of different scenarios and hurdles I've come up against over the last few months and it's been very very helpful for me.

Feb 2024

Michelle has been a great help and support to me during a very challenging period. She's a brilliant listener, very empathetic and helps ask the right questions to help me get to where I need and want to be. I look forward to our weekly sessions and am so grateful for her help, kindness and support.

Very experienced who I can trust to depend upon when I have any advice to ask. The work Michelle provides is always useful and helps massively.

Aug 2023

Michelle is such a warm soul who listens and cares about me, my livelihood and path forward. Every human be-ing just wants to be heard, acknowledged and guided in times of doubt, anguish or need, and Michelle's knowledge and compassion are equally grounded to provide a lot of help which I have truly appreciated.
