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’s the best
Very knowledgeable and understanding
She's been amazing and I look forward to continuing therapy with her!
Sheri is an amazing person as well as therapist. She doesn’t try to sugarcoat anything but she still has the empathy to help you get through your issues. I would recommend her to anyone! <3
She’s an amazing therapist
I love that I am comfortable enough to speak to Sheri about all my concerns and we talk through them and find ways to fix the issue.
Sheri constantly reaches out and checks in. She is very helpful in addressing issues and genuinely cares for her clients.
I feel like having someone that truly knows how I am feeling and understands my situations to help me better get to know why these things are happening and why I am feeling.
She has been my favourite therapist, I’ve had quite a few. I absolutely love her!! I’m so glad I found a therapist like her! : )
She's great!
She is very helpful and communicates well.
She great
Sheri is an amazing person! She is very caring and thoughtful, and she really helps you navigate through your self care journey.
Sheri, has honestly saved me. I was in a very dark place months ago and she helped me come out of it. Even now, when I have my moments she keeps reminding me that it will be ok. She guides me, she talks to me, she listens to me, she provides the proper tools to help me through those rough moments.
Sheri is a great therapist. She has helped me through an extremely rough time in my life, and I am grateful for that
I’ve only had a few sessions so far, but I’ve never felt so heard in my life! I love my sessions with Sheri! I’ve never wanted to heal myself more than I do right now! ❤️
Sheri is an amazing therapist and person. I would strongly recommend her to anyone needing help from a very caring individual.
Is very personable and checks in often.
She is, quite frankly, amazing, thoughtful and kind. Very good for helping people get to a better headspace of thinking of their problems, and how to resolve them. I cannot recommend her enough, she is just a lovely person
Sheri’s services are unmatched of any counseling services I’ve tried in my local area.
I'm really impressed with how much Sheri communicates with me. She does way more than I ever would have expected. I kinda feel like maybe she's even overworking for me, because she's doing so much for me. I've been able to pack a lot of therapy into just a couple weeks, because I have been able to communicate with her on almost a daily basis, using journals, e-mails, chats, and video appointments. I'm really glad I paid for Better Help. It's a really good value. My mom only gets 15 minutes of talk time with her psychiatrist, and he charges her one hundred dollars, and doesn't talk to her again for a whole month. So, I kind of assumed this would be similar - Get my 15 minutes, and be rushed out. It's not that way with Better Help at all. I used to not understand why people who use psychiatry also need a talk therapist, but now it makes complete sense. I see now that the psychiatrist is only doing the medications, which for some people, may only be a band-aid. The talk therapist spends more time with you, so you can process your emotions and heal. And it's a lot more than just ranting, like I did with past talk therapists. Sheri talks with you, so you're not just complaining or venting. She gives you some feedback, so you don't feel like you're just talking to a wall. I also want to thank Better Help for the information that Sheri shared with me, like coping skills, from the beginning. My past therapists would use words like coping skills and self care, but I never really knew what they meant by those terms, and for some reason I didn't ask. I assumed coping skills are how you cope and self care is taking care of yourself, but there is more to it than that. She gives you an entire page of examples of coping skills you can use. Also, I use Alpha Medical for my medications, and they recommended Better Help, not knowing I had already signed up with you guys. Alpha Medical is very good for help with medication, so when they recommended you guys, I felt confident I was in the right place. I have two children with very severe special needs. They are teenagers but function at a 12 to 18 month level. It is extremely difficult to find babysitters for them. An online platform, like Better Help, makes it so I can concentrate more on self care - taking care of my own mental health to be the healthiest and strongest I can mentally, so I can be the mom I need to be for my boys. I am very grateful for Sheri and Better Help, and I plan to stick with this for as long as it's available.
Sheri was great and wish I could continue with her but having to cancel due to funances
I have had only one session so far and look forward to seeing Sheri again soon. Vet understanding and easy to talk with.
So far, she’s great! She really listens and pays attention. She’s understanding and goes out of her way to keep contact with you, throughout each week. That’s been a big thing for me! So- I think she’s wonderful!
Very helpful! I appreciate her tremendously!
Sheri has helped me out tremendously already. She was able to help me come out of an active panic attack. She listens to my concerns and provides me with the right techniques to help me through tough times.
