I can tell Alexa cares a lot about my needs and helping me, after just three sessions with her I feel much more comfortable and able to articulate my feelings than I thought possible, especially this early on. I think part of that is my motivation too but a big part is her ability to navigate things, my style of communication, prompt and listen well and make me feel heard and understood.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.
