Michala always gives me a chance to express my needs and concerns. She is an excellent listener and has put my mind at ease for many things I have been struggling with. She has a way of really simplifying things so that my mind can better cope and adapt to the many changes I’ve endured this year. I feel a sense of support and assurance from her. She goes above and beyond outside of sessions too - responding and reading very long journal notes I have sent her. It’s also really nice that she remembers things I’ve told her and is on the ball with everything I need to work on. I would highly recommend her.

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.

Great!
Michala is very supportive and responsive. She understands my case very well and is helping me tackle my issues and understand how to deal in situations. I feel I’m improving and things ate getting better.
I’m really happy I was paired with Michala. It was my first experience and I came out of it so strong and having learned all the techniques I need to help me get better with my problem. Michala is very professional, respectful, supportive, responsive and very friendly. I would definitely recommend her!
Great psychologist, highly recommended.
Michala is a caring and knowledgeable therapist who listens really well and is kind and patient.
I’ve worked with Michala for a few weeks now and I’ve found it really helpful. I’m very chaotic but she manages to draw my attention back to the session and fully listens to my answers to her questions and gives me time to think when I need it. Felt really comfortable with her and she comes across as very non-judgemental. Have already recommended her to someone :)
