Hanna has been very insightful and helped me unravel the insidious mechanisms of my toxic relationship that have been destroying me for years. There have been some truths that were very hard to hear and even harder to truly understand that took me a long time to accept, but I did and it has given me relief and solace I needed to keep going. I'm very thankful I got to this point through therapy.

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.

Hanna listens to you very well and asks lots of good and specific questions, she is totally professional. In general, everything is clearly structured and she is really responsive. I particularly like the fact that she made me feel like I could tell her everything from the very first minute, that she is very good at holding a space for a person and that she explains so well why certain psychological patterns can happen by using examples. I feel very understood by her.

Hanna has offered exceptional support as I navigate a time of change and uncertainty. She has not only cultivated a comfortable space where I can share my emotions, but also offered many practical tips and tools that have had a positive impact on my day to day life. Hanna has also been flexible and accommodating to my unpredictable schedule.

There is no one else I would rather choose to help me understand myself and work through my personal issues, than Hanna. She is an excellent listener and always provides me with perspectives on situations and feelings that I wouldn’t have identified on my own. Aside from that, she is really easy to talk to and makes therapy feel like a very safe space to discuss absolutely anything.

Hanna has been incredibly helpful on my journey through therapy, she is incredibly supportive and open in her responses and really helps me look at my life and past through a more objective lens while helping me be more in tune and aware of my emotions. I feel we have built a really good relationship together and I have no doubt that will continue to develop as time goes on!

So far, my experience with Hanna has been great and very fulfilling. She's very professional and assertive and has been able to guide me me through my current struggles.

Hanna has been working with me for the last 7 months, I have made such big improvement since working with her. She has been the first therapist who I’ve felt like has understood me and is non judgmental. She made me very much open to the idea about talking about my past and my emotions which I never thought I would be able to speak about. I am grateful to her and would recommend Hanna.
