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.

Larcetta was absolutely fantastic as a therapist. She used multiple resources and worksheets to help me with various issues. I would highly recommend her.
I started out in a very stressed and dark place but Dr Larcetta Linear helped me cope with my loss and work struggles. I would have loved to continue to work with her but due to being out of state we had to part.
Larcetta has been supportive on the issues that we have discussed, and has offered ideas and solutions on how to deal with some of them. I like that she challenges some of my opinions and offers another point of view.
She gave me solid advice and some tool to help me as I move forward. I appreciate her understanding my situation and my values.
Larcetta has helped me in as short as 3 sessions and i am so grateful to have been matched with her. She listens when needed, and asks questions or relates to her own life in the perfect balance— making this therapy experience feel genuine and unique to my needs. Larcetta is very receptive to any feedback, as well as offers a supportive ear when needed. I look forward to our weekly sessions every week.
Ms. Larcetta does a fantastic job. She has helped me tremendously in many ways, some I didn’t know I needed but once I got the help I felt very at ease. I highly recommend her.
Larcetta was very empathetic and made me feel very comfortable throughout our sessions. I felt a change in my anxiety levels within a week and returned to work. I would definitely come back to BetterHelp to work with Larcetta.
Having never met Larcetta in person before, she was nothing but friendly and approachable when we first started having sessions. She is patient and is a great sound board. She asks questions and is very insightful. I appreciate her willingness to listen and ability to understand when I am trying to express my thoughts. She has great words of wisdom and a calm demeanor when I am struggling. Larcetta is very knowledgeable is does whatever she can to help provide me with resources as well as finding the right words to say if I am having a hard time. I look forward to meeting with Larcetta during the week. I would recommend my friends, colleagues, and family to meet with her.
