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.

Rachel provided me the support I needed and understood my concerns. She was a listening ear and provided quality guidance.

Reviewed May 2024

Rachel is an amazing Therapist! This was my first time signing up after many failed attempts with other therapists in my area. From the first 10 mins, she had already made me feel comfortable and safe to start delving into my struggles. She was very understanding, a great listener, but very direct in her approach. Her advice showed how professional and knowledgeable she is about her work. Rachel is very attentive if I have any questions or concerns and is able to provide her own personal touch to our sessions.
