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

Dr. Anene is a great therapist who actively listens and tackles topics directly with care. She also communicates effectively and efficiently. She helped me unpack a lot and refocus my energy in positive activities. I was able to reclaim myself through consistent work and communication with Nkem, which prepared me to recognize a healthy relationship with equal reciprocation. I highly recommend Dr. Anene, especially if you are going through codependency and general relationship issues.

I always feel like I am talking with a friend instead of a therapist. I love that she listens to me and always shares a respectable perspective on how to move forward.

Dr. Anene has been a gift on my journey. She has been great at getting to the heart of what matters in ways as practical as they are compassionate. Trust was established easily and that has made is easy for me to open up and explore. I am truly grateful for her expertise, experience and empathy.

Dr. Anene or Nkem is amazing! She is easy to talk to and takes her own approach to therapy that I appreciate. It’s hard to put in words just how much I got out of our sessions, but I do know that after every session I left felling encouraged. Thank you so much Nkem, you are much appreciated!

Overall

2 sessions (60 minutes each) into the counselling, I am glad to be working with Dr. Anene. I feel I have communicated my needs and goals from this therapy clearly and we are working our way to understand them and my challenges are being laid more clearly with Dr. Anene. It is a work in progress and I have started the needed work to improve my communication skills with Dr. Anene's guidance. I will love to make further progress and share my review later again on our journey. -- Thank you Dr. Anene for being my therapist, patiently listening to me, helping me identify and work on my goals.

Amazing therapist! She got me in a really low moment in my life where I was feeling quite lost. She’s helped me find my power and my confidence back.

Wonderful woman, listens to everything and response is really informative. You can tell she hears you and reassures you when you’re on the right track, no matter the doubts that come to your head.

Dr. Anene is awesome. Definitely had a great first experience. I can’t wait to complete this journey with her.

Mar 14, 2023

Overall

Dr. Anene has been such a role model to me. I know we maybe not relate completely on a cultural level, but she has such an open heart to help bridge that gap. Therapy isn’t always easy on the heart, but she gave me plenty of space to understand and to empathize with the emotions I go through. I recommend Dr. Anene for all of the above :)

Overall

Dr. Anene has been amazing. I love her no B.S. tough-love mentality. She's been showing me what I need to do to take more control of my life, one step at a time. Dr. Anene has a lot of experience and expertise in a variety of fields (her profile speaks for itself), and she demonstrates it on our calls. I strongly recommend Dr. Anene.

Overall

Dr. Anene is understanding and direct, a combo of qualities that I find helpful in guiding my own process. She is respectful but also challenging, which is great whenever I have difficulty noticing my blind spots. The post-session assignments have always been right on point; they deepen our conversations and push me into insights that have, so far, been what I want out of working with a therapist.

Oct 01, 2022

Overall

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Dr. Anene! She offered Biblical encouragement (when prompted), listened well, and took great time to address my concerns. I appreciated her nurturing spirt, practicality, and humor too. I always feel more confident after ending our sessions.
