Gill is a wonderful therapist. She understands the things I need to talk through and does so is a calm, compassionate and helpful way. She really listens and picks up on so much and has helped me think about things in a different way. I enjoy my sessions with her as I’ve gotten so much out of this. I can’t say enough good things about her. Thank you Gill.

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.

Gill has been a great help getting me though this difficult moment for me. I don't know much about therapy but she listens to what I am feeling and helps me to be reflective. She has tried to get to know me and understand why I am feeling as I do. She is supportive and makes suggestions for how I can be kinder to myself.
