About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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. Ranging from $60 to $90 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.

Overall

Shaakira has been so instrumental in my growth over the last two years. I love who I am becoming and I owe a big part of that to Shaakira. She is so wise and has allowed me the space to vent, talk, think, cry, and laugh. I look forward to my sessions with her. I truly believe God matched me with her specifically and I feel I am becoming more of who He created me to be. I’m so grateful for her!!!!
