About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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 excellent
She has been a great listener and helped me gain insight into my own mind. She has allowed me to reflect on certain beliefs and see that there is more to my situations than meet the eye
Laura is an exceptional therapist. Her compassionate approach and insightful guidance have been instrumental in my personal growth so far. She creates a safe and supportive environment, making each session valuable and empowering.
I have been working with Laura for a month. I started therapy with a lot of pain, but she has been patient and understanding and sensitive to my issues of concern. She listens carefully and has made me very comfortable in my therapy experience.
Laura is a very trustworthy listener, who follows the pace and nature of conversations entered into with ease. She is very supportive, whilst also offering interesting and necessary commentary or advice to open up more of a dialogue. I would highly recommend her, and she has been key to my self development and learning. Thanks Laura
Very helpful and responsive
Laura is patient, explains methods and strategies clearly and listens with empathy and care. She is a very good therapist.
Laura Turns is amazing. She taps into issues I didn't realize I had because she truly listens to what I'm saying. I'm not looking forward to these revelations but knowing Laura is there comforts me. She has done so much for me already.
Laura has been supportive and also challenges my thinking and perspectives when I lose focus. Her insights are keen and thoughtfully shared.
Laura is a great listener, she understands, validates and acknowledges my feelings and suggests ways to cope with them. I’m very pleased with the sessions.
Laura is the best; she is professional, she is caring, she listens well. I am very lucky to have her as my therapist. What I like about Laura is that she rarely judges me if at all. I always feel respected as a client; and it’s really hard to find someone you can really trust. I am proud to say that Laura is that person who I trust almost completely knowing that my feelings will be safe. Very happy w/ my experience! Thank You BetterHelp!
Laura has helped me a lot during my time at BetterHelp. She's an empathetic therapist with excellent listening skills. What I enjoyed in particular is her commitment to refrain from giving advice that is too subjective. She was nonetheless always supportive. I was able to get to know myself a lot better thanks to her.
Very understanding and non-judgemental therapist. Highly recommend.
