I feel very comfortable and heard by Annika. From the first session I was able to share openly and honestly, I even cried which is usually hard for me to do. She helps me reflect on how I’m feeling and guides me to think about solutions and coping skills. If I was able to share with others directly that signed up on BH to connect with her as a therapist I would, so I have no doubt others that get paired with her will have a positive experience with Annika as their therapist!

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.
