I always feel better after getting off of a call with my Therapist. I have a new sense of clarity and peace. She always finds a way to explain behaviors so that I can understand and process them. I highly recommend Better Help and my therapist.

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.
