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.

Really listens to me
Duane is extremely kind and listens thoroughly. Gives great advise and makes me feel Comfortable sharing things with him.
He's amazing. He doesn't make you feel like you can't talk.
I am really enjoying my therapy sessions with Duane. He is helping me work through issues with my spouse and issues with my family.
He absolutely understands my position as a single Mother of an adult alcoholic. He has significant experience in addiction counseling and recovery. It is wonderful to have someone to talk to that understands the disease and the impact on family.
Duane is an experienced, down to earth therapist with a no-nonsense approach that is very supportive and straight-talking. He helped me with figuring out how to protect myself while trying to support my spouse before my spouse was ready to become sober. The approach Duane took helped me to get out of crisis and set some limits about what I would put up with, while also emphasizing healthy ways I can support sobriety without taking the responsibility on myself. It worked great to meet online. I recommend Better Help and Duane highly.
Great therapist. Duane is thoughtful and kind, and shows he cares. He understands why you are participating in therapy and focuses on that to help you improve.
Duane was very responsive and helpful with an urgent situation in my life. He had many strong tools available that were really clarifying. He gave some expert advice which helped me to get a good way forward when the situation changed.
Duane has helped me even after 3 sessions. He actively listens and provides great feedback . I do not feel Judged and know that he wants to help me. THANK YOU SO MUCH DUANE!!!
Very respectful and reliable. Also very understanding of many situations including having to pause a session for family related instances. As a single dad this was very important to me when the you gest needed help going to the bathroom (potty training) or the kids were getting too rough, ect.
Drew has been very helpful in guiding me into ways to deal with my medical issues, and the mental side effects of the presecription drugs that I am taking. He has been firm, but supportive as I make my way through the cancer recovery journey.
He's been doing a wonderful job working with me
Duane is great at getting me to open up about things that I would not easily talk about if we were face to face
Duane is an excellent listener, he understands my weaknesses and helps me to find strategies to strengthen them. Dune will check in with me to ensure I know he is there, even outside of our sessions.
Drew has been great.. He’s provided me with some hope in my life…
