Words cannot describe how grateful I am to Ashley. I have seen numerous therapists in the past, but for the first time ever, when I leave a session, I feel empowered and not disheartened. Her kindhearted demeanor has been a perfect match for me and my sensitive personality. She is also funny and listens to all my concerns while providing helpful feedback to not only validate my thoughts and feelings, but offer constructive feedback and coping mechanisms as well. I feel seen and understood, and that alone has given me so much hope in becoming the person I wish to be. I highly recommend Ashley! Betterhelp has absolutely been blessed with having her as a part of their team.

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.
