When I signed up for Better help, I never went to therapy but my girlfriend suggested it so I went all in. I described the help I needed and was matched up with Winifred Cooke-Freeman. She has been a Godsend, we have navigated and are navigating through the issues I am having and she has given me some new tools that are working. I love the fact that she listens and she keeps it real. I am looking forward to more sessions with her.

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.
