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.

I have not been on BetterHelp for very long, but through the time that I have use the service I have some breakthroughs and improvements in my life and I can only hope that it continues and I appreciate what the service has provided given it being difficult for me to receive Professional help because of bias views in our society .

Susan is a really great listener and keeps up with me very well. I was very nervous to start therapy and she’s made the whole experience amazing.

Reviewed January 2024

Susan has been wonderful to talk with each week. For me, I need someone to act as a therapist but also feel like a friend. If a therapist is too clinical, I have a hard time opening up. I feel judged and will ultimately close off. But, having a friendly, and somewhat casual-feeling, discussion helps me to express myself and speak up about my issues I need help with. She's excellent at switching between the two facets to get me to talk. And, she's helped me to look more at myself and my family relationships in different ways. I look forward to our sessions each week.

Susan is patient, clear, and tries to ensure I understand her reasoning behind everything she tells me. As an autistic person, this is crucial. She's also kind and accepting of the things I talk about; she doesn't judge. I've always been a bit leary of therapy, but Susan's demeanor put me at ease immediately.
