I was doubting for years on going to therapy, but since I discovered Betterhelp and I starting having therapy sessions with Maitena, I have felt a big improvement in my overall wellbeing. Maitena is very caring and professional. I really like her approach and really encourages me to change from my inner self. She has very good tips to share and approaches to try out. I really appreciate this.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
