About online counseling

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Reviewed August 2021

I've only had a few sessions with Ann so far but she's been incredibly helpful. Always available to listen without any judgement and able to make me feel comfortable despite being so nervous before the meetings. She's happy to go with the approach I want to take and checks in regularly to ensure I'm good with how things are progressing.

Reviewed July 2021

Ann was wonderfully helpful in my journey to better my relationship and myself through BetterHelp. Ann often spoke with me in a professional way without being intimidating. This is my first time using BetterHelp and it was better than I could have imagined it, with Ann.
