About online counselling

Counselling without referrals.
No doctor referral required.
Convenient.
Virtual counselling sessions are a flexible alternative to in-person therapy.
Available now.
Counselling in as little as 48 hours. No waiting list and no calls to make.

Online counselling 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 counselling is generally more affordable than in-person counselling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counselling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
