About online counseling

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.

I will always thank BetterHelp because it matched me with Anna. I had tried therapy before, but Anna brought a revolutionary approach into my life. Through targeted worksheets and techniques, she has helped me become aware of my emotions and reactions, and encouraged me to act proactively to process traumatic events and become a stronger human being. I have experienced abuse many times in my life, and Anna is giving me the tools to own my happiness and see the light at the end of the tunnel. She is a talented listener and professional, and I would recommend her to everyone who really feels they want to see real changes in their life.

Speaking to Dr. Anna in a very challenging time of my 30s was truly life changing. Aside from a strong professionalism what truly transpired from our sessions to date is her soul as a human being. She equipped me with tools and a deeper level of thinking. As an Italian native speaker I also hugely relate to what she conveys and I’m grateful I found her on BetterHelp. Can’t recommend Anna enough

Dr. Anna Lo Lacono, has helped me tremendously with seeing the good in my life. She is a bright light that I enjoy seeing every week to motivate me with positive energy and using practical worksheets that relate specifically to me and my struggles. throughout my time seeing Anna I have gained more confidence in myself, being more assertive and accepting of my life ambitions and past traumas. I just want to say a big thank you for everything to Dr Anna Lo Lacono, without here I would certainly still be lost in my spiralling thoughts, not valuing myself and possibly still stuck in a very toxic situation. If you need positivity, balance and the power of self appreciation or you need to heal from something in your past. Dr Lo Lacono has the passion and the expertise to really help. I've loved her energy and investment in my recovery paired with her wide use of practical worksheets that ground our work into something tangible and real. She is a fabulous guide out of the darkness and I will forever be grateful for our sessions together.
