Mr. Goelz has been extraordinary. I have no complaints. I would recommend him to anyone I know. I feel like I have made a friend and wish therapy wasn’t over soon. He listens and cares. Wish he was a friend on the outside of BetterHelp. We had a lot in common and shared the same values. Honestly I can’t type enough words to express how I feel. If I ever need better help again he would be the only person I would accept. I hope he is blessed beyond measure in his future endeavors. Thank you Mr. Goelz I will hold onto our conversations and your advice for the rest of my life. God bless you good sir! Until next time my friend.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
