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. 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.

I love my therapist

Overall

I was very nervous about putting myself out there but it has been freeing to finally have my past out in the light. It seems to be that it isn't in the shadows it hasn't popped into to my thoughts like it used to I can finally put it behind me and move on.

I am heard, seen, and validated. She is authentic and I have made progress internally in just a few appointments. This was the best decision I could have made for myself

Dr Athuman has invested great amount of time into listening to my concerns and helped me seek clarity about some of the things I had questions on. I've learned a lot about myself in the process.

Kim is the greatest! We clicked immediately and she's always very understanding and supportive, but will also point out things that I should work on - negative ways of viewing things or trauma responses that need to be tended to. She's so easy to talk to and I look forward to our sessions each week. Definitely recommend!

We immediately connected, which was a very different experience with my previous experience. She eased me into unpacking my less traumatic issue. She checked in with mid-week to follow up on my action steps. Really nice!

Dr. Athuman has been great, she talks me through things and helps me see situations in another perspective, which is exactly what I need. She’s given me worksheets to help with specific areas of my life that I hope to use in future situations and has made me feel comfortable and relatable in our conversations.
