About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
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.

First therapist I’ve had on here and has been a wondrous help!

Reviewed July 2023

I returned to BetterHelp after a little over a year of no therapy and was assigned to Deanna. From the first session, Deanna has been compassionate, understanding, and provided a safe space to share my worries and challenges. Deanna checks in via text when I am having a rough week and has been easy to work with when my work schedule changes to find an alternative time to meet. We have worked on a variety of topics including: depression, anxiety, PTSD, and ADHD… and the woes of midlife changes impacting all of those conditions. I have recommended Deanna to others interested in trying online therapy. Overall, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

She's always been very understanding and ready with many suggestions when I'm stressed and lacking the right understanding or social resources. I've grown a lot and made progress having weekly sessions with her, and feel very comfortable speaking with her.

Reviewed May 2023

Deanna has taken me from being a severely deep depression to a new and happy me. It’s fascinating how she is able to identify my struggles, challenge me, and provide the tools I need to better myself everyday. She inspires me to do the work so that I can find happiness on my own, but she is responsive to my urgent concerns that I need support working through. I am so grateful to Deanna for helping me find happiness again.
