This has been a great experience so far. I really enjoy my time with Ann. She helps me uncover parts of myself and guides me to identify what I can work on to make positive changes in my life. She guides, supports, and encourages. She celebrates my successes with me and helps me through the tougher moments. I like that she sends me things to review and work through. I really like that I can do it online and the hours are convenient. I strongly recommend Ann and BetterHelp to anyone needing therapy.

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.
