I highly recommend Michelle as a therapist on the BetterHelp platform. She listens without judgement. She offers guidance and her perspective. I am becoming a better person because of her. On top of that, she is very responsive to messages and checks in on you often.

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.

Michelle is a true professional and a warm, non-judgmental, highly experienced therapist. She has helped me immensely!
The driving force behind these sessions has been empathy. I have felt uplifted when I was not able to credit myself. I was offered options on behavior change without it being fueled by guilt and shame. And… we have some fun and laugh in our sessions too. Big thanks to Michelle and Better help:)
Helped a lot in only two sessions
She is a very nice, informative and patient professional.
