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.

Joy is the best! I appreciate the way she brings her creativity to her work because it helps me look at a problem from a different perspective and find solutions I had never thought of before. I appreciate her sense of humor. Most of all I appreciate that she shares her personal experiences where it connects to mine because it makes me feel less alone and helps me find my way forward through a situation by hearing how she navigated her situation. I definitely recommend working with Joy!

I sought help after the unexpected end of an 18 year relationship. I felt had made a lot of progress working through the fallout on my own, but a family member suggested BetterHelp. I’m glad that I did. With Joy’s help and the help of the group sessions and classes offered by BetterHelp, I was able to resolve what I felt like were the final 2 issues that needed closure. In some instances Joy briefly shared some of her own relatable life experiences and in other instances presented a point of view that I had not yet considered. I was able to get the closure that I needed and feel prepared to move on with my life. She even suggested that I would make a good life coach.

Helped me find peace of mind when I was surrounded by chaos. 10 out 10 would highly recommend.

Reviewed January 2024

Joy is a truly empathetic and kind person. She listens to me ramble for an hour every week, and she checks in on me in between appointments. I appreciate that her method isn't directive, and she's not trying to fix me. She supports and encourages me during our sessions, and she asks questions that help me process the things I want to work through. I appreciate her presence in my life, as short as it has been so far. She remembers what we talked about previously, and she engages in the conversation with me instead of as an observer. I really recommend her if your preferred therapy style is being allowed to process things as they come up, and letting the topics flow into each other.
