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.

Richard is great! Easy to talk to and always cheerful!
He’s very understanding and he makes me laugh and is straight up with me at the same time. He seems like he wants to see me smile and it makes me feel so good, I barely know him and it feels like I finally have a really good friend that I actually get excited to just be able to sit and chat with and we’ve only had 2 sessions so far
He has helped me with all my problems and gave me great ways to cope with everything going on in my life.
Richie is the best! Already have my wife using BetterHelp now and my sister started using it as well!
Richard has helped me work through a difficult time in my life, riddled with anxiety. During sessions with him, I learned to control my anxiety with techniques that he taught me. He is very thoughtful, and he is available when you need him. After just 3 months with Richard I was able to get me anxiety under control.
Richard is a wonderful therapist and person!! He made me feel heard and offered me a safe space to talk and be myself. Talking with him was a highlight of my week and helped me work through a lot of my problems and worries about my life!
Richie is fantastic! Is there to listen and give me great advice and guidance each week. He is also very flexible with my schedule which can be chaotic with a baby and another one on the way. Recommend Richie to any and every one who is looking to have a kind ear, a thoughtful mind and a gentle heart help them along their journey.
Richie is the best!! He had been a gift for me these last few weeks. Always listens and provides great advice and guidance. He is so easy to talk with and truly wants to help. Would recommend him to everyone!
Richie is an understanding and compassionate human being. I couldn't ask for anyone better to be my therapist.
