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.

Mark has been great and listening and allowing me the space to work through my thoughts and problems, offering support and advice where needed and asking questions that make me examine what’s going on in my head.

Good match, only had two sessions but felt comfortable off the bat

Reviewed September 2024

Mark is a warm, professional therapist who strikes the perfect balance between challenging me when I need it and giving me space to reflect. He’s compassionate and thoughtful in his approach, and our sessions are not just productive—they're often genuinely enjoyable. Mark has a unique way of helping me connect the dots in my life that I’ve overlooked for years. His guidance is broad enough to give me room to explore, yet precise enough to lead to real solutions. His caring, curious, and open style has helped me work on things I didn’t even realise needed attention. Mark’s active listening skills are exceptional, and I always leave feeling truly heard. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a kind, experienced, and authentic therapist.

Reviewed September 2024

Mark is an extremely nice guy, very professional, but has such a warm personality that I am comfortable opening up to him. I was very sceptic about therapy, but he has made the entry to it very easy, and on top of our scheduled meetings, he is more than happy to talk on the chat page and replies in good time. Would strongly recommend him.
