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.

Daven is an amazing help with my needs and mental health. Definitely a great specialist!

Reviewed December 2023

For someone who has never met me, I can tell that Daven genuinely cares about me. He goes above and beyond what you would think are the normal responsibilities of a therapist. He adapts his sessions to his patients and they all feel very personal and not like some generic script. He knows what areas to push and when not to push too hard. He’s very good with understanding anxiety, relationships, and trauma. Daven has helped me find my true self and the man I want to be. I am forever grateful that this app brought me to him.
