Karen style is really compatible with my personality. I made a lot of progress with her in the last few months. She helps me finding the answers in me rather than telling me what to do.

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.

I really like working with Karen. I like that she is a human with struggles too. I feel like she is in a better position to help me because she has been through stuff.
Karen is literally the only person in my life that checks in on me so I am very grateful to her and to have this service with her.
Approachable, understanding and kind. I feel Like she cares about me
My therapist is amazing and I have been coming back to her for the amount of therapy that I have been allocated over the last couple of years. I do wish that better help itself would work with clients a little bit better by giving better Financial options along with taking on more insurance policies so that I can get more therapy instead of the small amount that I am allowed. My therapist is amazing when it comes to my mental health. It would just be nice if the company was more focused on the mental health instead of making it financially impossible for more people to get help.
Working with Karen for the last couple of years has truly been a blessing to my sanity. I was at a place of serious pure depression, suicidal thoughts and now I feel stronger than ever before. I'm not allowed very many phone video sessions through my work but her messaging me and checking in on me makes me feel worthwhile in this world to have somebody actually checking in on me. Honestly I don't know where I would be right now if it wasn't for Karen.
Karen is compassionate, supportive, and professional. We’ve worked well together since the first session and I’m so grateful to have her as my therapist.
She is the best and I only came back for her and would only talk to her. I will continue to use this service as much as I can and am allowed with the insurance issue.
Karen and I have developed a good rapport in a pretty short span of time. She’s always professional and listens well. I appreciate her directness and honesty.
I contacted Better health and within a day I was partnered with a counsellor Karen Heinrich. She contacted immediately and we booked for the next day. I was severely sad during our first session and by the end of our session I had regained a manageable level of my sadness. Karen checked my wellness by text almost bi-daily and we met again weekly with no waiting period. Karen efficiently gave me coping skills to better deal with my sadness and Covid isolation. I highly recommend anyone having difficulty with effects of Covid, don't wait as long as I did, seek help even if it's just to confirm your mental health is well.
Karen is a lovely person. She’s a great listener and helped to suss out issues that really bothered me. I found that her recommendations on how to handle stress and negative thoughts were also quite useful.
