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.

April is one of the best listeners I've ever met. In just three weeks, April has helped me identify weaknesses I want to work on that I was completely unaware of, and I'm already feeling more whole. Working with April has been a gift!

Very helpful and kind but stern in a friendly, helpful way.

Reviewed May 2024

April is not only super supportive but also makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. She doesn't just want to do the typical 'jump into the past trauma and ask how everything makes me feel' things that a lot of therapists do. She talks to me about things that are happening in the moment and how other's feelings and actions are making me feel as well as where they might be coming from with their feelings and emotions. I love the perspectives she gives and the ability she has to both listen and fully hear me when I talk.
