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.

Reviewed September 2023

My troubles, like everyone, are complex and confusing. I needed a therapist and nothing local was working. So I signed up with BetterHelp. Very quickly I had a response and what Louis wrote to me was exactly what I needed. Someone that was ready and willing to hear and see me through all the complexities and family dynamics, and he has. Louis has kept me in focus on what could possibly be a solution to my burnt bridges and soured relationships. He has my attention as I am sure I have his. He also has my respect and love for not giving up. I can feel his frustration and heartbreak in my failed attempt to repair my relationship with my Son. Louis will bring another solution to the table again and again yet knows when it’s time for a breather to look at the big picture. I am 50. I have had a therapist in the past, looking back I could recognize when she was just feeding me crap I wanted to hear instead of what I needed to hear. This really isn’t a healthy path to a peaceful mind. Louis recognizes a real win and although I haven’t had one in a long time he is honest and frank about the bumps in the road. Louis you have my thanks and appreciation for keeping me challenged and focused on what is truly important and possible on this journey to a healthy mind. Again Thank you

I've shared this to some degree in my session reflections as well, but Louis is a great listener who weighs things before he responds. I like that he repeats enough information back to me to show that all my rambling has soaked in and he's processed it before commenting or making suggestions. He is also easy to talk to and has a very personable manner. It never feels like a cold "couch session" in a clinic; it's like talking to a good friend. Also, he makes suggestions and gives perspectives that are not biased or judgmental. That means a lot to me. I'm very happy that BetterHelp connected me with Louis.

I've only had a few sessions with Louis so far, but the impression he's left is one of genuine expertise, care and respect. In only a few sessions, he has not only shared eye opening thoughts but, through talking things through objectively with me, has also allowed me to clear some uncertainties up in my mind regarding whether or not cerained things I or others have done have been justified. Clarity has helped. I look forward to future sessions.
