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’ve only had one appointment because I work way too much but from the one appointment I like Ikesha so far. I think she’ll challenge me when I need to hold myself accountable.

Reviewed June 2024

Ikesha has been very helpful in confirming how I feel, or what I believe is right or wrong in my relationship, but she does that by also challenging me to make sure I’ve done what I should be doing, that I’m making the effort to right the ship, which makes me feel more secure in the decisions I’ve made, and that I am making.

She is a great therapist, listens and provides great conversations during therapy.

Ikesha is an amazing counselor. I have never felt like I've connected with any other counselor as much as I have with her. She knows how to create a safe place where I feel like I am understood and have support in working through my issues. I've noticed one thing she helps me with a lot is "rewriting the story." I have a narrative in my head of how I think things are, but she shows me a whole new perspective. This has often been very helpful.

Reviewed February 2023

I am always so anxious and uncomfortable right before therapy. This is the first time I am investing time into my mental well-being and its scary. However, Ikesha ALWAYS makes me feel she is really truly listening and thinking of questions/ways to help me thru my issues. At the end of every session I am always so happy that I opened up to her and she gives me practical advice on how to move forward and change my habits or ways of thinking to be a better/happier person. I can't thank you enough :-)

Reviewed December 2023

She is a great listener and responds via message very quickly. She knew my culture played a huge part in how my situation started and why I am in my current situation, and she quickly familiarized herself with some basic culture information to better understand me.
