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.

Andrea is kind, relatable, and genuine. She makes me feel heard.

Reviewed January 2024

Andrea has been phenomenal to work with. She listens which was the number one reason that I wanted to start this. She is an unbias person in my life that I can just talk to with no fear of my conversation negatively impacting something else in my life. I am busy with an executive position, a family, and pursuing a Doctorate which sometimes makes me feel like my life is wake up, go go go, and crash but taking time to meet with Andrea is me time that she really just helps me destress and focus. It's been amazing help!

Andrea is an extremely professional, empathetic therapist who is able to quickly recognize your needs. She is both willing to be up front about things you need to work on and eager to help you feel supported, human, and productive in your therapy. Her goal-oriented approach really clicked for me.

Andrea has helped me organize my thoughts and given me so much clarity in my communication and relationship with others! In addition, she has helped me turn unhealthy coping mechanisms into healthy habits and decision making. This has, in turn, helped me with my larger goal of managing my anxiety. I am so grateful to her and to Better Help for helping me move the needle forward on being the best version of myself I can be!

Andrea is great. She listens, but also poses questions that get me to think. She has a great perspective and helps me to remember to be kind to myself when I might be overextending or accidentally invalidating my own feelings. Would highly recommend.
