Yvette is an excellent therapist/counsellor. She listens to my concerns thoroughly, and helps me navigate the emotional challenges that I face every time we chat. A lot of the realisations I have this year about my childhood (and subsequently, adult) issues stem from the conversation I had with Yvette. Highly recommended!

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.
