I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I’ve received from Hanifa. From our very first session, it was clear that she possess a deep understanding of mental health and a genuine compassion for her clients. Hanifa Okoli has a remarkable ability to create a safe and non-judgmental space, which has allowed me to open up about my challenges and work through them effectively. The techniques and strategies she use are not only insightful but also tailored to my individual needs, making each session productive and empowering. Her empathetic approach, combined with her professional expertise, has helped me gain clarity, develop resilience, and make meaningful progress in my personal journey. I highly recommend Hanifa to anyone seeking a skilled and compassionate therapist. She has made a significant positive impact on my life, and I am confident she will do the same for others.

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.
