I am a person who's not a big fan of therapy as a whole. It never seemed right for me. Through my life taking twists and turns I was sort of corralled into it, ending up with Stasia, who has completely changed my view on it as a whole. I needed someone who was more willing to take the wheel in a friendly and kind manner, since I didn't know what to say or what to talk about. Stasia is perfectly suited for this as she is a very kind and clearly caring individual who continues to have a clear understanding of me, who I am and the problems I experience.

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.

shes great and does not judge me at all she got me crying first session
Stasia Manak has changed my life so much in a matter of months, I will never be able to thank her enough for how amazing she is at her job ❤️
Great and informative sessions.
10/10 would recommend Stasia to anyone needing therapy. She is so easy to talk to and really made me feel comfortable with her warm & loving personality. She's very professional and made my first experience in therapy a very pleasant one.
Stasia is the best! She helped me navigate through one of the hardest transitions of my life. Of all the therapists I’ve seen, Stasia dove into my past unlike any other to help me get in touch with who I am, how I was raised and what tools I need to be my best me. Definitely 1000/10 recommend her.
Very professional and very helpful
