Cicily has been amazing, from literally the moment we said hello in our first meeting. I feel much more confident following our conversations and I have a much better understand of everything I’m going through. She has done an amazing job explaining things to me or walking me through various emotions, feelings, or situations. Cicily allows me to talk through everything without judgment and gives me the tools necessary to find a way to explain what I am going through which has been amazing. I look forward to our talks because of the progress I’m making and I wouldn’t feel this way without Cicily.

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.
