Raj has been a tremendous help, especially after years of avoiding therapy due to past negative experiences. Her extensive knowledge and dedication to understanding clients truly stand out. Raj encourages thoughtful reflection without imposing any direction or assumptions, creating a safe and non-judgmental environment.

I came to my first session with no clue of how the therapist session works. I had a lot going through my mind; it was everywhere. But Raj has helped to funnel down the issues that I need to focus on and let me be aware of where I have achieved in life that I cannot see. Having another person to see where you're at with life is very helpful, and Raj has been very suitable to assist me with that. It was comforting to share my life stories with her because she understood what I was trying to relay. I never experience that truthfully... I appreciate it so much and am glad she is my therapist. I can't wait to have another session with her again very soon :)

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.
