I had an exceptional experience with my therapist, Sharon. She was such a great listener and very understanding of my concerns and emotions without judgment. Sharon's ability to identify the core issues that needed attention was super impressive, which allowed us to make meaningful progress in each session. Her positive and caring demeanor created a safe and comfortable environment where I felt supported throughout my therapeutic journey. Sharon's patience and understanding were invaluable, and she always took the time to explain things clearly and concisely. Additionally, her reassuring approach helped me gain confidence and navigate challenges with a renewed sense of hope. I highly recommend Sharon as a therapist and for her genuine dedication to her client’s well-being.

About online counseling

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.

Sister Sharon is absolutely amazing! I loved our conversations. I came away from every session smiling and uplifted. We covered many topics - career challenges, toxic boss, family/parent issues, domestic abuse, and my overall personal self-esteem. She helped me use techniques to deal with each issue and I have taken them away to continue applying in my life. I highly recommend her. She is so easy to open up to. Thank you, Sharon!
Working with Sister Matharu these past weeks has really helped me work through some issues I was having with my confidence and resilience after some big life changes. I found it so beneficial to talk through these things with a professional who could help me identify areas where I was struggling, look towards self acceptance and be able to start enjoying my life fully. I've come away with some coping strategies such as journaling which I can put into practice to support me going forward. Thank you Sister Matharu!
