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.

She holds me accountable
She is great at responding to concerns I have.
Angela is very knowledgeable and understanding. Through our sessions she provides amazing insight and provides room for me to come to an understanding of myself. I am so grateful for the therapeutic relationship we have developed.
In the past I struggled with finding the right therapist for me but in a time of personal crisis, through BetterHelp, I met Angela Thornell. She’s helped me more than I thought was possible in such a short period of time. She takes her time to listen, understand and make you feel heard, is so kind and is enjoyable to speak to and learn from. I’d recommend her to anyone and I’m so thankful to have found her.
Very patient and understanding
Angela is a great therapist always listens and asks great questions. Helps with all of my problems and is super friendly and relatable!
Angela has been wonderful. She is so supportive. She checks in to make sure I am still on track and feel well.
Great at giving me thing to try n to deal with things
Wonderful therapist who stands out as someone who is able to listen and help
Angela is the best therapist I’ve ever had! She’s a great listener, non-judgemental, and always approaches every situation with such wisdom.
Great
Angela is wonderful. You can tell she has a lot of experience and she is very patient. I appreciate the way she communicates, and how she asks questions that are meant for me to really think and learn more about myself, and she doesn’t try to fill in the silence with her own opinion (unless I ask for it).
Best therapist I’ve ever had ! So thankful
Angela is always so thoughtful, understanding, and supportive and regularly messages me in between video sessions to check in and see how I’m doing.
Very helpful, attentive and caring. Always has a soft soothing voice. Does not have a judgy demeanor.
Working with Angela has benefitted me in so many ways. She is caring, approachable and kind. I have already grown so much in my time with her and it's only been a few weeks. I look forward to our sessions and continuing my growth journey with her.
Angela is very kind and compassionate. She has helped me to get back on track and find ways to cope with my current situation!
Angela is extremely compassionate and very helpful. Our sessions are though provoking and relaxing.
I can tell that Angela is experienced with helping others who have similar issues. She encourages me to make decisions and stick with them - and knowing that I have a "plan" for that if's is helping my anxiety.
Angela has been fantastic and made me feel comfortable and at ease. For my first experience with a therapist I’m glad to be working with her.
Angela is amazing and you can tell how much she cares for her patients. She is super supportive and the advice she gives is extremely helpful. In between session, she also reaches out to me and asks how everything is going. Other therapists I've had on better help either 1) didn't have experience with my issue (even though they claimed to) or 2) didn't really have any passion for helping people out. Angela is the best!
I’ve had a few counselors in my life. I’ve only been meeting with Angela for a couple of weeks but I can tell this will be the best counselor relationship so far. I immediately clicked with her style. She’s willing to ask the hard questions, and then listen. She’s not afraid of pregnant pauses and letting me talk when I’m ready. Her follow up questions are spot on, and then she always holds me accountable. I’d highly recommend her!
