I have been working with Laura for awhile. She is very sensitive and has been timely in her interventions and the approach to my therapy journey. She listens well, and creates an opportunity for self reflection, and exploration of my own thoughts. There is openness to my needs and pain and she helps to guide me to a place of healing and growth. She is a great therapist

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.

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.
