This was my first experience of a therapy service and I couldn’t be happier with Amy’s approach and the outcome. She was incredibly supportive and adaptive. I now feel better equipped to deal with life’s challenges, yet reassured that Amy is there to help in the future if needed.

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.

Amy made me feel comfortable straight away upon our first online meeting. She speaks with confidence and listens with care all while maintaining a warm atmosphere. She replies quickly and I'm already starting to feel better because I've been properly listened too. I trust that her experience in the field will allow me to learn new ways of coping with my struggles. Thank you Amy

I think Amy is very professional, she demonstrates empathy, and offers a lot of support.

Reviewed July 2024

Having a few sessions with Amy has already changed my perspective on things, she listens, sets goals, and supports me. I strongly recommend her as a therapist and she does an incredible job.

Reviewed July 2024

Amy is incredible, she listens intently to me with zero judgment and unravels what I tell her into simplified thought patterns. I was so nervous about getting therapy and how I would be judges, I feel none of that with her and trust her so much that I have told her things I wouldn’t even admit fully to myself and that’s really helped my experience. I’m so excited to continue working with her.

Amy is caring, supportive and friendly. I don't feel judged no matter how much I unload, only ever supported. I feel she believes in me and believes in change. Thank you.
