I am so happy I finally started this. I've had past trauma that has been affecting my everyday life for so many years and I am very grateful for this service. Having therapy from the comfort of your home makes the world of difference! Yes, the worksheets you are given at first are a little impersonal, but it's the quickest way to get the background information needed so the therapists have a sturdy base to start on. Once we fully got into conversations I felt that my therapist already knew me and we were able to start right in like we've been talking for years. Highly recommend!

I started therapy for one thing and as soon as I was getting that worked out my son killed himself and my counselor is helping me through the worst thing that has ever happened to me. I'm glad I got her.

I had only been using Betterhelp for about a month when I started recommending it to others. I am so glad I found out about this before COVID-19 made it the only way to get mental health help!

Better Help is perfect for me. I have tried going to multiple therapists in person and I was faced with judgement and crossed boundaries. Better Help keeps everything at a pace I feel comfortable at. It also allows me to think and digest the content one at a time so that everything is organized and never overwhelming.

Love that I can message the counselor throughout the week after the weekly sessions.

This is a website I had been recommended to by a friend and I have gone on to recommend to others. They are very flexible in scheduling and pricing in comparison to other offices I have been too. The price I am paying as of now per month is around the price I would pay per session in my area when I was looking for a therapist,but friends I have that are in more complicated financial situaions have also been able to get pricing between for them. You pay once per month and then you can communicate with your therapist 24/7. You can schedule however many sessions is needed as long as the appointment book is open, and each session can be text chat, phone call, or video calling. The website also provides some built in tools, such as journaling, chat and video calling features. Upon making an account, the website ask many questions regarding your emotional and mental state to help get a clearer picture and questions regarding personal preferences (ex. Religious/Non-religious therapists) then seeks to pair you up with a therapist that matches your input. The website also provides an easy way to switch to a new therapist if you find that the one you have is not working out. You will also be given this same option even before your first session where you can decide whether you want to try the therapist they paired you with or to search again. I heavily recommend this website to those in the LGBT+ community as this website ask many questions regarding identity and ask about whether or not you would prefer a therapist who is specifically trained in LGBT+ patients as well as the option to request a therapist who is LGBT+ as well. This website recognizes sexualities beyond just straight, gay, and bisexual (including asexuality and pansexuality), as well as including non-binary identities. This website properly asks for your pronouns and asks about LGBT+ medical issues (ex. Dysphoria) and their impacts on your overall health. Overall I highly recommend this website. I have already recommended it to close personal friends who were looking for therapy. During COVID-19 lockdowns, this site is incredibly beneficial.

This has been tremendously helpful. I have constant communication with my counselor and I can get an appointment within days.

BetterHelp has been incredible. I've gone most my life trying to handle my OCD on my own or through self-care outlets, and in the first week of finding my therapist on BetterHelp I've made more progress than I have on my own in years. The application is easy to use, functions well on any platform, and is far worth the investment. I would recommend this to anyone looking for that next step of commitment
