Kerry is such an understanding individual. I had never done therapy before but she made me feel at ease immediately. She's helped me develop my confidence and self esteem. Her advice and guidance has been invaluable and I can't recommend her enough!

Reviewed March 2024

She was very understanding of my social anxiety in large groups/panic attacks . I did not see any bias in her listening to me which is very important. Furthermore, I have found that some therapists can be a little to over analyzing/concerned, which basically disregards the point one is trying to get across. I would love to keep working with 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.
