Melissia Bennett is a GODsent! In the time that I was with her, she helped me to understand and deal with the life of trauma that I had been masking for 45 years while giving me the tools and knowledge to be very present in my day to day life. She was always very patient and professional with me, especially during times that I wasn't the easiest to deal with. I thank GOD for her daily and kudos to you BetterHelp for having such an amazing member of your staff!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
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, 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.

So far I've only had one session with Melissia, and it went very well. She got me thinking about stuff about myself that I never would have. I will continue sessions with her. I highly recommend Melissia.
