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.

Session are very helpful!
Betty has been extremely helpful and supportive as I navigate major changes in my life. She is truly a gift. I feel like she creates a soft, open and judgement free place to land when I have too much on my plate as a business owner, wife, and mom. She creates a safe space for me to just talk it out and I feel she understands my heart and sees me for who I am. She also supports my overall goals and encourages me in a gentle way to explore solutions that would get me closer to healing, instead of staying stuck. I am so thankful I was matched with her!
Betty has been a godsend for me and is helping me navigate a difficult time in my life. She has my back 100% and I love that she is down to earth and herself in the process. I feel like I have someone in my corner who knows exactly how to make me feel better without judgement and offers practical solutions that encourage my personal growth and development. I love that she can make me laugh in the middle of hard conversations and feelings and that I feel lighter after our sessions.
I always feel much better after my sessions with Betty. She is AMAZING!
I always look forward to my sessions with Betty. She has been tremendously helpful and kind. I really enjoy that she gives reading recommendations based on the information we discuss. I honestly came to Betterhelp with a bit of hesitation because I have had some underwhelming experiences in-person in the past, but Betty is engaged during our sessions and provides a lot of feedback. I’ve had a very positive experience.
