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.

Brad is really thoughtful and supportive…really appreciate his perspective during tough times. Super helpful
Brad is an exceptional counselor who approaches his job with true passion. I count myself extremely fortunate and blessed to have found him through this app. I journal everyday and he always reads and responds regardless of his hectic schedule. He handles my struggles with loving kindness, patience, and wisdom. I have to do the work to be the better person I want to become, and Brad is right there with me cheering on my triumphs and steering me back on the path of logic and reason when I fall into emotional havoc. I trust him thoroughly, and that has made all the difference. Thank you, Brad, for your humility, courage, and faith.
Bradford Hanes is an excellent listener which helps him to be an excellent therapist! I am getting great support from Brad and finding my sessions with him provide insights and breakthrough on several issues in my life.
Brad is an excellent therapist who immediately helped from the first video session. Fantastic therapist and even better mentor. It’s been a pleasure working with him.
Brad is an amazing man. His level of care was never expected when I joined and we immediately bonded. Brad helped pull and guide me through one of the roughest episodes in my life. More than a therapist, I consider him a close friend. Brad is truly a healer. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a caring hand.
Bradford has been excellent to me. This was my first time seeking therapy and talking with him has had a great benefit on my outlook so far. Would recommend him to anyone who needs therapy
Brad’s been a huge help for me alongside BetterHelp in general. I live a unique lifestyle that requires lots of travel and working with Brad has been seamless. I am still early in my healing process but I know I have the right therapist for me since I’ve been better than where I was initially.
100% great experience
Great human being, really insightful and knows what he’s talking about.
Bradford is a gem. He fully listens to what I am saying and with his help, I know I am on the road to a full recovery.
Working with Brad has been extremely helpful. He has truly made a difference in my life for the better. His expertise is uniquely special and valuable because of his personal experiences. I know that the person I am talking to isn't just feeding me material learned solely from an academic standpoint....his trials and tribulations, his lived experiences are a testament to a man who practices what he preaches. He shows his patients that you can come out the other side of hardships a healthy person who is better off.
Very helpful, communicative, and personable. Always checking up on me to make sure everything is going well. If not, he will drop everything and talk me through whatever I am dealing with. Overall, by far the best therapist I have ever had.
Sometimes it takes just sitting down and talking with someone that has walked in your shoes. Brad has been that person for me.
Brad listens to me and provides helpful feedback.
Brad gave me the tools and insight to help me through a devastating loss in my life. I learned meaningful skills like reframing, and was able to find self-acceptance in a time frame that I did not think was possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend Brad and his wisdom to anybody going through anything from a tough time to the toughest they've ever been through.
Brad is a great therapist. He listens, has very good insights, and he can suggest very useful skills to help build my confidence and tool set. I highly recommend Brad.
Brad is very attentive and responsive. It's been an enlightening and reassuring experience.
Even after just 2 sessions I’ve felt better about everything. Brad listens to me. Respects me. Guides me. Challenges me. It was an instant bond which I feel is extremely important. Brad makes therapy enjoyable and almost seem casual. I’m looking forward to continuing with Brad and working on more and more as we uncover it.
Brad has really helped me stay focused with my goals and has made himself available at all times if I need help.

I have been going to therapy / counseling for almost a decade and I have never felt more seen or heard than I have with Bradford. He not only hears me, he listens, AND he cares.

Bradford’s insight and help have been life changing for me. I don’t know where I would be today without him, and I know I’m becoming the person I’m meant to be, in part, because of him.
Brad has been a great help. He has great insights, listens and is able to highlight the key elements in the session so that I can stay focused. He'll give me relevant and achievable targets so I can keep moving forward. I would highly recommend Brad to anyone who feels like they are adrift.

When I met Brad, I felt like he really had a sense of my problems and my feelings, I didn’t have to delve into the depths of my past, because he seemed to understand and empathize immediately. He’s a fantastic therapist and I’ve already learned some extremely helpful new skills and mindsets from him.
Although I haven't had many sessions with Bradford yet, he's been very helpful, knowledgeable, experienced, and relatable. I look forward to continuing sessions with him!

Brad take his time listening to me. For the first time in a long time I feel heard. He’s incredible and so smart. It feels like a caring friend that I’m speaking to. I don’t feel judged and you can tell he genuinely likes people and his career.
