I was matched with a therapist well suited to help me deal with anxiety. She really helped. My advice using this platform is to use the “Switch Therapists” feature if you don’t feel you are a good match. I did that after 2 or 3 sessions with my guest assigned therapist and it was easy. The BetterHelp help team is also great for scheduling and billing issues, very helpful any time I reached out. I did sessions off and on for about a year and am in a much better place now to manage my anxiety. I learned many skills and new ways of thinking so that I can deal with things much more effectively and enjoy life again.

Betterhelp was available online and I was not too sure about using them. However, the reviews were amazing, and I proceeded. They are a fantastic company and offer great service and understanding. I would recommend them highly. My therapist has helped me during my difficult time. She is careful to listen and give good feedback bringing back my confidence.

My experience was bad. After not finishing even one full session, I was advised to find a licensed therapist somewhere else. Honestly, this is not what I expected from a mental health platform. It was my first experience and I am very upset and disappointed in psychological therapy overall.

I like that I can get help remotely, I would have a lot of anxiety breaking down in an office and then having to walk out looking like i've cried around people. It makes me feel like I can express more of what I'm feeling and show genuine expression rather than repressing it. I like that I can journal and share that with my therapist as well and its a nice way to decompress after a session.

I was referred to a therapist on the better help app by a friend and the app staff helped me get connected to her once I made my account. The app is great, I can message her and get feedback throughout the week! It is cheaper than sending a Superbill to insurance and waiting months to get reimbursed a small percentage!

I have made 2 attempts with therapist on Betterhelp. Both were disappointing. The 1st person I spoke with looked like a mature woman in her photo. After our initial session I had doubts that I was speaking to the person in the photo. She sounded really young & inexperienced. I asked for out next session to be Video, so I could see who I was talking to. She said that wasn’t possible. I believe that I was being Catfished on this site, shown a picture of a middle aged woman, & then have some kid on the line with me. I complained, got that session refunded, but no one has addressed my concern around the fraud. My 2nd attempt, I selected an older woman (70+) who was available for video chats. She recommended a book to me that was published 40 years ago full of corny, sexist outdated references. She told me that she recommends this book to EVERYONE she works with. I felt like that could be said for all the coaching I received from her. Very basic generic advice that had little to do with me. I would not recommend this site. It may seem like a bargain, but you get what you pay for. Or possibly, you will get nothing at all (worthless generic advice)

The process that Better Help used to match my psychological needs with a therapist is far better than other services I've used in the past.

The app is super easy to use . They have a lot of questions that can help tackle what ever issues you are facing . Phone calls ,chat or live video is available with a therapist of your choice.
