I’ve only spoken with Suzanne once so far but I know she’s great at what she does. I felt immensely comfortable and respected and clearly understood. I look forward to many more sessions. I also want to mention that I was concerned that a video chat may not be personal enough but it’s so easy through Better help- The video session was actually very personal feeling- I think this is a great way to get counseling help, where its usually a bit of a process to find thru my insurance company- this made it super accessible and simple!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
