I had tried therapy before for a few sessions and it just wasn’t the right time or right therapist for me. After many more months of remaining depressed and hopeless, I decided to give it another try through better help. I was matched with my therapist, and had my first session. At first I was still skeptical. It’s not a magic pill that automatically makes you feel better after the first session. But I did click with my therapist and decided I would continue with my therapy sessions after the first month. I continued to make progress and changes in my daily habits, routines and self talk and after 3 months have made significant progress in my life. I was suffering from severe depression, no motivation, unhappy… I was a miserable mess. Therapy is a tool that has helped me make significant changes in my life and helped turn me back into my old (new) better version of myself. 🙏🏻

Yes it was hard to do but once you own that you need help, it’s has a lot less anxiety of downloading an app than walking into an office. For me anyway.. I was nervous as first but once I got through the question and began truthful with my answers, the app actually found me a wonderful therapist, I cried happy tears after I got my first session with a therapist.

Company provides good service with their connectivity with a licensed social worker who helped me cope with symptoms of mental issues following a new diagnosis. Also was great to have a culturally aware practitioner who showed curiosity and acceptance. I could open up to the social worker for advice and rely on their support for my journey with the diagnosis. This time with the social worker helped me connect to social work culture, work on self acceptance, and allowed me to grow as a person. Having someone knowledgeable in mental health to talk to helped to lessen my depression symptoms.

It's funny, I thought I knew what I wanted to talk about for therapy. The ease of our conversation has been AMAZING! I appreciate her versatile knowledge while my ADHD brain rattles stories- she keeps up and tunes in to items that I didn't even realize mattered.

Thus far, I’ve had a great experience. In conjunction with my assigned therapist, there are opportunities for me to participate in classes and group therapy sessions which are supplements to individual therapy sessions.

You are losing access to the sessions you've already paid for, if your monthly payment is delayed. I have even lost access to the website after sending them an email to tell them that I want a refund for all the sessions I paid for and haven't got the chance to access. The schedule of my therapist did not match mine so I wasn't able to have the 4 monthly sessions I paid for during a month time. I so not recommend the website.

This app has made therapy easy and accessible for my busy schedule. I can take care of myself with out having to put my life on hold.

My sister recommended betterhelp. I love how convenient it is with offering video sessions. My therapist was experienced, listened, sent me relevant reading materials, helped me refine my goals while being supportive. I have started a new job, completed my Masters degree and feel motivated to live life. I have learned to set boundaries with myself and others.
