I have been in therapy with Laura for 10 months and I don’t know what I would do without her. I was not in a good place emotionally when I first signed up for BetterHelp. Laura is such a great listener. She is empathetic, kinda and loving. I have become stronger, more confident, and I feel great thanks to her insights and infinite wisdom.

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.
