I decided awhile ago to give myself the gift of "I-need- to-be-heard-need-to make-changes-personal-growth-therapy". I'm really glad that I did. It feels good to talk to an adult who is encouraging, helpful, patient and understanding. It is also very affordable. This is really helpful to me (recently laid-off).

I have wanted to try counseling for many years now but I couldn't fit it into my schedule. Betterhelp is the solution I've been looking for. I can schedule visits around my responsibilities which is important because... Anxiety. 10/10 would recommend.

Overall a good service. Good functionality (setting goals, journaling, video calls and messaging). The pricing worked well for me as I was aiming to have 3-4 calls a month (which is much more expensive on other similar services I came across). I would recommend the service, BUT there are a couple of caveats I've experienced: Finding the counsellor was really difficult though, and the first month was close to useless - the first counsellor was not a good match, I then had to wait some time until the second choice counsellor told me they cannot work with me, and only thereafter I was able to have a match that worked (the latter two I could choose, rather than be allocated). Also challenging to find the right counsellor, with the right availability, and work around the scheduling when I am based in Europe.

What a wonderful resource this company is. 13,000+ counselors all over the country available for those who need it. I live in a rural area where counselors are not convenient, and I feel it is a terrific opportunity for me to receive the help I need at my convenience. A very qualified person is helping make decisions and solve my personal issues privately, and I can do this from my home.

BetterHelp has been great for me. I've known that I need therapy for about two years now and BetterHelp finally made it possible to do it affordably and from the comfort of my own home. I am so grateful and look forward to continuing to use this service and heal.

Connected with actual experts and on my time! I can participate in therapy from anywhere and in so many forms (messaging, live chat, phone, video, group sessions on specific topics). As a mom of 3 in a very rural area, having this level of flexibility and still get access to true professionals is absolutely amazing! Highly recommend.

Betterhelp has always been a platform I utilize right away when my mental health is suffering. I can talk to a therapist within a day rather than waiting for an in person therapist. Quick questions are answered in a timely manner, there’s always an opportunity within a week to have an in person session, and the therapists are knowledgable and helpful. Betterhelp has also helped with discounts, extensions on subscription service and refunds when necessary.

3 sessions in, found the website easy to use (and that's even though I'm a MASSIVE bit of a tech-dinosaur), with absolutely great platform support, prompts, follow-up, engagement ... Not to mention a smashing counselor!
