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.

Excellent therapist. Makes me feel at ease. I would recommend to anyone
So helpful and I don't know what I would do with out her helping me though all my past life drama
I have always been one that is scared of therapy and opening up but Louise has truly helped me ease into it all. It’s effortless to talk to her. I never feel judged and it feels like I’m just talking to a friend (although I understand boundaries). She’s prompt with her responses and I feel that she does really well in responding to what I have to say in a way that’s easy to understand and not too formal. Her terminology isn’t too complicated and if there is ever something I do not understand she is more than happy to explain. Very happy with Louise. She gives me hope in therapy. Thank you Louise.
Louise listens actively to me and adapts her responses effortlessly depending on what I need on the day. I have a long history of learning about self improvement, however, I still find wisdom comes from Louise in every session we have. Even though some of the sessions can feel challenging at the time, I look forward to them all. Louise has helped me to unlock some interesting aspects to think about and make positive changes in my life. I feel very grateful to have formed a professional coaching relationship with Louise and have no hesitation in recommending her to others.
She knows how to be professional and connect at a human level when necessary to give examples of healthy communication and expression
Louise is very professional. She understands what my problems are and addresses them accordingly. She is very patient with me and we can both understand each other. I am looking forward to more sessions with Louise.
Louise quickly put me at ease and made me feel emotionally safe. I appreciate her tailored approach to suit individual clients' needs - I asked for feedback and to be challenged, and she delivers. I also like her openness about her own background, when solicited, as this has helped me to build trust with her. I feel I am making progress since started with Louise a few months ago, and would recommend her as a therapist.
Absolute legend! Funny, charismatic but also caring and insightful. Completely changed how I view therapy for the better!
Louise has helped me through a really stressful time. She’s skilled at asking just the right questions to help me reframe my thoughts on situations. Her empathy and support have been a big part in helping me reconcile with the past and try to face the present with optimism. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist.
Louise has been so kind and helpful to me during the past few months. She is very warm and understanding, while pushing me to think deeper or differently when I needed it. She is a good listener and gives useful, easy to implement, suggestions which have improved things for me a lot. Thank you, Louise!
Louise has made an incredible impact on my life. I feel as though we have a great connection, and I always feel listened to, appreciated and uplifted. I look forward to our sessions!
I have been surprised at the depth of my sessions with Louise. I did not think online therapy would be able to dig in as deep as my sessions have with Louise. She's great at asking questions that push me further.
Speaking with Louise is very easy and I feel that she listens very well. When I am not feeling so confident to lead a session, she is very empathetic and she is happy to guide me through some avenues to explore. I feel that she understands my issues well and has useful insight into how I am dealing with things and offers me a different perspective to look at them.
Louise is very attentive and seems to understanding my needs and issues related to my concerns. I appreciate her expertise and helping me understanding a wider perspective on my concerns and patterns.
Very warm woman and super understanding
Really great match for me
Louise is a great therapist. My first session, I immediately felt at ease, able to talk openly and honestly. It’s certainly been a move in the right direction for me. I’m looking forward to engaging further with Louise and taking forward the actions and seeing the outcomes as I progress.
She's great ! She hears you out and never judges your situation.
