It’s early days as we have only had one session but I am really impressed with the interim support between sessions. I am trying to be fully engaged with the process and her quick responses really help to keep me motivated and on track.

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.

Overall rating:
It’s early days as we have only had one session but I am really impressed with the interim support between sessions. I am trying to be fully engaged with the process and her quick responses really help to keep me motivated and on track.
A very attentive therapist who makes talking about what are difficult things for me to verbalize into a maneagble task for me.
Davina has helped me understand myself and my needs better. I have become a more positive person and gain a little self love. She is an amazing therapist and I always look forward to our sessions
Lovely person who listens carefully and very professional. Highly recommend!
Davina is super. She is kind and totally non judgmental. She listens carefully to what I say and asks thoughtful questions to support my progress. The app asks me to review things too often.
Davina has been amazing throughout our sessions! She is able to help direct with questions that create space for thoughts. Davina has really helped me take a deeper look into myself over our sessions and I’m looking forward to learning so much more about myself with her help!
I really feel I'm gelling well with Davina and have been able to make considerably more progress with her than other therapists.
Davina put me at ease from our first session, which was important to me as this is my first experience of therapy sessions.
