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.

Cherena is great! I felt safe all the time and my problems were accepted and understood. We are having sessions for three months now and I feel so much better.
I haven't long started therapy and already feel like I'm on the right track. Cherena has in a very short amount of time been able to break through some of my beliefs that were holding me back and also get me to start self analysing some of the things that I've been struggling with
Cherena is really good at supporting me, but also at constructively challenging my thinking. I noticed big improvements with my mental health after just one session, and fundamental changes over a short month.
Cherena is a kind, thoughtful and very skilled therapist. I have learnt so much working with her, and I continue to learn and grow with each session. Highly recommend!
We’ve not had many sessions with each other but I feel she understands where I need support and has already given me tools to help me.
I cannot thank Cherena enough for all of her support in the last 3 months. She has supported me to move through big changes in my life, and helped me to understand myself and my emotions. Cherena has been patient, kind and authentic, and challenges existing thoughts where necessary in order to support me to grow. I am very grateful that we have been able to work together.
Cherena has been a great therapist for me. In the time we've worked together, she's been attentive, kind, and considerate to my needs and the fact that I'm quite new to therapy. I am so glad we are working together!
