Leila has been great, I am not sure I would have got through this year without her. I especially appreciate that I don't always have to wait for advice until our session, because I can message in my journal.

Leila is very easy to talk to and listens to exactly what I need, she is practical in her approach and reviews my progress to ensure the methods we are using are helpful. She is very thorough in her responses to me and I feel she understands my aims for therapy and strives to give me what I need to achieve those aims. Would highly recommend!

About online counseling

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.

Leila is by far the best therapist I’ve met. She listened, respected and supported me throughout our sessions. I think it is very important for people who need help to feel heard. Not only that, Leila also helped me challenge my current situation and change my perspective on where my life is headed… beautiful person and a brilliant professional. I’d only come back to her if I need help in the future.
Leila has been lovely to interact with, and even in a short period of time has given me things to think about and work on going forward. She responds very quickly and clearly to any messages/questions I have had.
