I have been using better help with Alana as my therapist for about a month now! I love how she listens and gives feedback! She has encouraged me to use my passion to help with my therapy! She is patient, kind, and relatable! She makes you laugh even when you feel like your whole world is crashing down around you! I could not have picked a better therapist for myself!

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.
