I have seen other therapists since I have been going through a difficult separation with my ex partner of over 10 years, and none of the other therapists I have seen have been able to get me through the difficult weeks quite like my therapist on Better Help, Brian Freeman. Thank you, Brian you and Better Help are heaven sent!

Brian is awesome. He is straightforward and an excellent communicator. He has helped me immensely with family dynamics, my understanding of myself, and prioritizing myself. Can’t recommend him highly enough.

More about Brian

I AM HERE TO LISTEN! I know that reaching out for help is HARD. I want to provide a space for you to feel as comfortable as possible and be your completely unfiltered self. I have been working at the best trauma/substance abuse center in the US for the last 3.5 years and I have learned so much that can help so many people. I am typically a very relaxed person and this comes across in the way that I interact with clients. I believe that change can begin with a simple conversation and that is the way that I approach clients. While I am typically relaxed, I do my best to foster change. I am very willing to gently challenge clients to take a look at what is within their control and to take action on those things. This can be empowering and creates momentum for my clients. I am grateful for the chance to speak with you and help you find the part of yourself that you are hoping to find.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
