Louise is a great therapist. She is professional and relates to my concerns. She is a good listener, and gives me advice to get better. I was feeling very good every time when and after talking to her. I had trouble sleeping but each time after the therapy I was able to get a good sleep. I had trouble expressing my emotions but I was able to open up and cry it out in front of her. Thank you so much

I am finding Louise to be a wonderful therapist. I was hesitant to begin therapy but talking to Louise has greatly diminished my therapy anxiety. I am happy to find someone open to and interested in the same topics as myself.

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.

I started talking with Louise Abitbol a few months ago and it has been such a pleasure to have her as my therapist. This is my first time in therapy and was told by a couple of friends that when starting therapy I may not connect with the first therapist I am paired with. I am SO thankful and feel lucky to have been matched with Louise first. She has been fantastic at helping me through a very difficult time in my life where I felt lost. She has been so comforting and easy to talk with. Louise has given me so many techniques and tools to use in my everyday life and since I started implementing those, I’ve started feeling more happy and free and less lost, anxious, and depressed. I would highly recommend Louise to all!
