I've been working with Kathy for almost a year now. What I love is we have the same background (both being Latina women) so things I share i feel like she understands and I dont have to explain. Really happy her and I were connected.

I have gone to therapy for many years and right before I saw Kathy, I used to see a therapist in my area. He got covid and was very sick for a long time so I began with Betterhelp because I was really having a rough time at the beginning of the pandemic. I thought I would see Kathy for a few weeks and then go back to my regular therapist. It turned out that I really preferred her style of therapy and stuck with her. Then Kathy went on maternity leave and I began to see another Betterhelp counselor. I thought I would stay with the new therapist but as soon as Kathy came back, I switched back to her. I really enjoy her style of therapy. She listens so well and asks me questions that really make me think. She also offers helpful suggestions when I'm feeling overwhelmed. She has helped me get through some really hard times and I appreciate her so much. I would 100% recommend her!

About online counseling

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.

Kathy is my counselor for almost 7 months now. In the beginning of my counseling sessions I was super skeptical about therapy working for me because of past experiences. However when I met Kathy, she changed my whole perspective about therapy. Kathy actively listens to my concerns and is really patient with me. She is also honest and challenges me to be the best version of myself. I am so amazed with my growth.
