Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Great listener. She makes it a very comfortable experience
Thandi has guided me to be more confident and peaceful. I can set boundaries in a mature and Christian way with others . Thandi has walked me to face the fears of the trauma that has occurred throughout my life. I feel blessed to have her as my therapist.
I am so glad that I contacted Better Help for assistance with some traumatic experiences. Thandis is encouraging and supportive. She allows me to be proactive in my recovery process. I'm thankful that we were matched!
Thandi was kind and attentive! Highly recommend
I have only had 2 sessions but I have really appreciated them both. And Thandi is very kind and compassionate. I really appreciate her.
Very kind and understanding
Wonderful experience! Just had my first phone session a few nights ago & we jumped right on to topics I want to tackle. 10/10 recommend so far.
I have been doing therapy for about 5 years now and I have never found someone more caring, compassionate, and kind than Thandi. She listens to the things you want to work on and asks the right questions to help you them figure out. Thank you Thandi!
Thandi is great! Extremely understanding and supportive! I would recommend her to anyone!
She has helped in many ways to inspire self confidence within me. She is calm and collected and gives level headed advice and strategies that break through the clouds of anxiety.
Thandi is easy to talk to, pays close attention, and offers extremely helpful insights. I’m very happy to have been matched with her.
She’s caring and considerate
Thandi is great. I’ve only been seeing her for a short time but I like her gentle disposition and helpful advice
Thandi has been incredibly helpful to me in just two sessions. She offers tools to help me to continue the work we are doing together and I leave our sessions feeling like I have good direction on steps that I need to take or what I need to work on to accomplish my goals.
She is the best!
Thank you
Thandi and I have only had 2 sessions but I feel like we have covered so much in those sessions as I reached out to therapy with so many issues I wanted to discuss and I also have a lot of pressure in so many areas of my life. There is the culturally difference of Thandi being American and me living in rural Australia but I feel that Thandi has taken that in her stride and been as supportive as she can be an open to different ways I want to deal with issues
