David has made a huge difference in my quality of life and taught me the skills and techniques i needed to handle my negative thoughts and anxiety. I first joined BetterHelp seeking help as I suspected i had a personality disorder, David listened to my concerns and advised me how to go about getting a diagnosis and treatment, whilst supporting me throughout the process. He’s very understanding and considerate, and good at challenging your thoughts without pushing too far.

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.

Reviewed April 2023

David has been nothing but supportive since our first interaction. He always responds in a timely manner and often initiates conversations or checks in with me to see how I am doing. He is extremely understanding and I find it very easy to open up about all aspects of my life with him. He has good techniques and coping mechanisms or ways to deal with difficult situations and I would 100% recommend him. He also understands how to respond when I am feeling anxious or upset and is exactly what I would look for in a therapist.

Reviewed January 2023
