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.

Thandi has been incredibly helpful to me in just two sessions. She offers tools to help me to continue the work we are doing together and I leave our sessions feeling like I have good direction on steps that I need to take or what I need to work on to accomplish my goals.

Reviewed December 2022

Thandi and I have only had 2 sessions but I feel like we have covered so much in those sessions as I reached out to therapy with so many issues I wanted to discuss and I also have a lot of pressure in so many areas of my life. There is the culturally difference of Thandi being American and me living in rural Australia but I feel that Thandi has taken that in her stride and been as supportive as she can be an open to different ways I want to deal with issues
