i've had a really great experience with better help over the past few months. i needed some support in making some changes in my life and got paired up with a perfect match, a therapist who got me and has been super helpful. however this wasn't the first time i tried better help and in the past i'd not had as good of an experience. so i think it really depends on who you get paired up with. it is pretty easy now, though, to switch therapists if you don't like who you get initially; this was not the case in the past. and it is definitely way easier and more convenient to do online therapy from home (particularly in the midst of a pandemic) than going through all the work to find an in-person therapist that you like IRL. i also like the fact that you can message and chat online with your therapist, as well as do video/phone sessions. it's not cheap though. they like to tout that they are cheaper than regular in-person therapy but that is certainly not true for me, as most therapists i've had experience with do a sliding scale, and since i'm fairly low income, i've always paid much less than what i've paid better help. to me it seems pricey. but i guess this might vary depending on where you live and the kind of therapy you've gotten. all in all, i'm glad for the experience i've had recently and wish i could continue w/my therapist, but i can't afford it any longer. thankfully i'm not in crisis and i do feel like i've gotten what i needed from it.

Betterhelp is a very helpful platform for online and digital therapy. They truly helped me through a rough time. A++

Oftentimes we shy away from support based of stigmas that we cannot change or control. This platform allows you the choice on how to navigate your healing. You can't attach a price to something this valuable but yet here we are,with this amazing support for self-help and living your best life.

They make the experience great

I'm so happy I found BetterHelp. I don't have to get out the door for therapy, the first person I didn't like, immediately I was matched with a 2nd therapist and I've been with her for more than a year now. What I love about this platform is also I get to share my journal with my therapist, unlimited messaging, so if I feel I need support late at night, I can write a message and get a reply the next day, sometimes in the same day! I highly encourage anyone who wants to embark on a self discovery and healing journey. My Betterhelp therapist held my hands through it.

I used to take sessions with chinwe She is the best woman I can ever work with I improved a lot in many aspects

BetterHelp feels like therapy for people who are afraid of starting therapy. You can start from your own home and begin by filling out a simple survey about what you hope to get out of therapy. I love ther counselor I was pair with from the start, but if you happen to get someone who doesn't jive with you, you can opt to be re-paired at any time. My therapist has made me work on myself without feeling too much pressure which can sometimes make people want to just give up. Take the moment, start the process in the simplest way possible and get the one on one help you need. That everyone needs.

I would, and do recommend Better Help to everyone. I think most people could benefit from speaking to a therapist at some point in their lives, but sometimes cost and accessibility can put them off. Better Help ticks all the boxes for me: video calls, instant messaging, easy to book, friendly & simple to use. And paying a low cost monthly fee via direct debit makes it so efficient. I adore my therapist and highly recommend her.
