I have been working with Ioana for over 6 months now and she is everything one could ask for in a therapist. She offers me many points of view, she has a vast variety of methods, always quickly to hand and not afraid to ask the hard questions. I have defeated fears and anxieties with her, built my self confidence and created ease in so many points of my life. I took a break from therapy for 3 months, but when it came time for help again, I went straight back to Ioana. Thank you ❤️

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

- 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.

After seeing quite a few therapists I can confidently say Ioana is a truly wonderful therapist, she holds space for me always and never judges. She provides thoughtful and helpful insights which help me reflect and gain outside perspective. I really look forward to each session with her and grateful for all the progress so far. Thank you Ioana!
Ioana is understanding and respecting of me, makes me feel comfortable and doesn’t judge me, meaning I have full comfortability in being completely open and honest even about things that I’m embarrassed about or wouldn’t tell anyone else. This creates a great foundation for solving any issues I have.

Ioana is a great therapist. She listens to me, remembers things that i said and gives me really good answers and things to do in order to achive my goals. I highly recommend her.
Great therapist who has really helped me navigate incredibly difficult personal circumstances. Excellent listener who offers pragmatic advice.
Before I started therapy I was so nervous and anxious of how things will go, however after speaking with Ioana Mitrache’s I was at ease, she has a friendly nature and good positive vibe about her which is refreshing to see. She really listens and asks you questions that confirms how your actually feeling, I am someone who is constantly second guessing my emotions and always think to myself if it’s necessary to have these emotions after only two sessions I have more confidence and mentally know that how I am feeling is true and it’s ok to feel the way I do! Thanks Ioana :)
