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.

Great listener with a knack for the right questions at the right time to generate excellent insights. Love it.

Reviewed March 2024

Shaun has been very helpful in allowing me to look out for myself better and make space for getting to know myself better, for which I am very thankful. He is polite, welcoming, understanding, friendly and goes the extra mile in making me feel understood, but he will also step in when he catches me speaking in an unproductive or limiting way which is also very helpful. I can confidently say that out of the few therapists I have had, Shaun has been the most helpful, and I truly look forward to our weekly sessions.
