Miss Gitipour is incredibly easy to open up with, and has a natural talent to converse. Allowing you to effortlessly express what's on your mind while never making you feel pressured. If you're dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, getting over a breakup or figuring out how to maneuver better with ADHD she's the one to speak with. I'm confident she can cover much more than that due to her excellent communication, patience, empathy and professionalism in sessions. I highly recommend her expertises.

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.
