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.

Overall rating:
Jamilia is so wonderful. She’s always a beautiful balance of compassion and challenging my limiting beliefs so that I can continue to evolve on my healing journey
She's wonderful
Jamilia is fantastic. She helped me get through some really hard times and get out the other end feeling good about myself and good about the direction my life is heading. She helped me reframe certain difficulties in my relationships and gave me the tools and confidence to make sure I’m getting my own needs met while building relationships. She is understanding and non-judgemental and can listen to you vent, then take in what she heard and give you poignant advice or things to think about. Highly recommended!
J is helping my navigate that hardest part of my life so far. I am so grateful to her and her guidance.
I have only had one session with my Jamilia so far but I am already enjoying my time and feel like this could be a great match.
