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.

Heather has been very understanding of my conserns, she’s has always been there to explain different ways for me to help myself. This has in turn prompted me to count on myself and see a positive future. Heather made me very comfortable to explain my concerns in as much detail as I needed and then gave me techniques to see how these conserns can be addressed. After speaking to Heather I feel far more confident in myself.

Reviewed September 2023

Pleasant and comfortable to talk to, with a lovely accent that I found to be soothing. She was actively listening to me through our first session together, and spoke up when I mad moments struggling to speak, giving me time to find my words and deal with my emotions. I liked her right away, and felt that I could trust her.
