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.

Sharon is a good listener and easy to work with.
I have a great experience with Sharon. She has helped me a lot with my mental health and is a great listener.
I look forward to seeing Sharon weekly. I feel like she was meant for me. She understands me and my flaws. I am overly grateful for her and feel I have someone who gets me and wants to see me succeed.
She really takes the time to understand me and follow up with issues discussed in previous sessions. Very personable and wise.
Sharon has helped me be more accountable and given me tools to feel with situations I felt were impossible.
Great therapist, Sharon listens to your struggle and offers excellent techniques/ problem solving tips. Love going to her!
I am comletely satisfied with all my interactions with Sharon. She has helped me immensely! She is very exerienced and definitely listens and remembers everything. I have already recommended her to friends and family.
Sharon is very nice and understanding.
Sharon is a lifesaver. I spend so much time feeling no one understands me or that my feelings are wrong. She understands and validates my issues, concerns, and wants me to be better. I can feel it.
I’ve only had a few sessions with Sharon but I definitely feel that she is committed to helping me in my journey and process with the things I came to therapy for. She sent me worksheets that help with the things that I tell her I want help with. She doesn’t force anything on me and bases what she sends and how she helps on what I tell her which I find extremely helpful and validating.
I really enjoy our sessions we have, for a change it feels like someone’s listening.
Sharon is amazing, so supportive. Very grateful to have her.
Great open and non judgemental
Great help to fix the issues I need fixed
Sharon has been extremely helpful. I struggled with self esteem and anxiety issues. She really helped me learn how to have the confidence to make better decisions. I can’t say enough how much Betterhelp has changed my life. I wish that Tricare would cover the cost, then it would be perfect.
Sharon is amazing! She always listens with respect and I appreciate the advice she has to give.
Sharon is awesome! I really like talking to her and she’s great at her job. 10/10!
Sharon is amazing. My first counselor was traumatizing to me, so it was very refreshing to get her. I can tell she cares and listens and I love the safe space she provides.
Had one talk with Sharon and she was very well spoken and helped me understand a few things better. She was willing to listen and gave me great answers and new beginnings. I would recommend Sharon in a heart beat
Sharon is a great counselor! She is available for phone or video calls, and answers messages promptly. She is a great listener and addressed all of my issues within the time we had each week. Speaking with her is very comfortable. I feel that she genuinely cares and I would recommend her to anyone seeking out counseling.
I have had a wonderful experience with Better Help. I have recommended counseling to anyone and everyone I could for years now after taking up psychology studies, but only recently practiced what I preached near the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Having a sounding board and confidant has really helped heal some of the wounds from my past, in addition to preparing me for my upcoming international move. The many pieces of my journey to a better mental state was covered over a series of sessions the last few months. I now feel better prepared to deal with stressors in day-to-day life and prevent poor mental states. Thank you, Sharon Zigman, for your reassurances and assistance.
Very strong counselor and would recommend to anyone that is struggling in her department of expertise.
