Worst therapy experience ever

After not being able to find a local counselor with availability I decided to give BetterHelp a try. I wasn’t sure what exactly to expect when I started the process but it turned out to be a very positive experience. The main benefit with BetterHelp over a traditional counselor is the convenience. The weekly video or phone sessions can be flexibly fit into your own schedule and you have access to your counselor via text between sessions which makes the sessions themselves more productive. Most importantly my counselor was very helpful, insightful, intuitive and supporting.

Mark is awesome, he takes the time to read and respond to my messages and makes me felt heard. He respects the distance I require to feel my own emotions and does so with a grace untought by classes.

I my self have been looking for a therapist for quite while. And then I got told about Betterhelp and i was putting it down like no that is not what I want I want to talk to some one in person but I finally said to my self I need to start somewhere and not be afraid. Then I started Betterhelp since I been liking it. Easy as well no hassles in your life having to worry oh I got to drive all the way to my therapist place. you can do it all at home or where ever you are. and also the best part its cheap. And so much more. Give it a try find out for your self. :)

If you're looking for someone to listen to everyday concerns like job stress or a bad day, then BetterHelp is good for you. But don't use it if you're looking for any significant therapy for serious issues like trauma. The therapist I was matched with only spent 30 minutes each week in a call. That's barely enough to scratch the surface of anything significant. She often asked me questions that I had already written. It was fairly obvious that she wasn't even reading what I wrote. Her questions and responses were shallow and unhelpful. She sent me a paper on trauma that I could have found with a Google search. In fact, I've read books that contained far more useful information than she had. She knew next to nothing about the type of trauma and abuse I experienced. She had no real insight on how others cope with what I've been through. This is a waste of money.

Better help is such a good platform that has helped me especially during a time when so many people need therapy and not a lot of places have been accessible for that. I like that I'm able to choose a therapist, switching when I need to until I find the one that's a good match. I also absolutely love that I'm able to talk everyday through text message. The only drawback is that for me the price became too expensive in my current situation. But what's nice is that they do have discounts that may be able to be more affordable. I would recommend to a friend

Betterhelp helped me in my time of need. I love the availability! Wasn't stuck to a 9-5 for speaking with my therapist. They take there time in matching you with the right person using a questionnaire. I was hesitant at first but my therapist Rose was so kind and gave me room to familiarize with everything and I was able to open up and truly receive the help I needed at a time That worked best for me. Great experience! And affordable!

I was very impressed with Better Help. I had no idea what to expect with on line counseling, but it is a great experience and my counselor was FANTASTIC!! Better Help is very efficient with assigning a counselor and then it was magic how quickly I got started.
