Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Linda helps me to feel good about myself even when I am really struggling to see my worth. She is kind, experienced, and accepting.
I appreciate Linda’s kind, attentive, and open-minded approach. She helps me to feel comfortable and free to explore my experiences.
Linda has helped me so much in the past few years. I used to be too emotional and lack self awareness. I would get caught up in how I feel instead of stepping back and looking at the facts. Linda has helped me find a way to express my emotions through writing them down. I have found this technique helps me understand how I feel.
Linda has been so kind and understanding with my experiences. I feel very fortunate to be working with her.
She is amazing

Great therapy from Linda!
I feel very fortunate to have been matched with Linda! Had I known the help I would receive would be so beneficial, I would have started up a long time ago.
Improved my life significantly. Without her I would not be doing as well as I am now. Thank you so much Linda
Linda is wonderful. She is thoughtful, perceptive, and caring.
Accidentally hit disagree on one of the questions. Linda is fantastic and very helpful! I believe finding Better Help led me to finding an amazing fit for my work life balance and becoming a better version of myself! Thank you Linda!!
I may have answered one incorrectly- I apologize. Please fix. Linda is patient, observant, and has helped me make small changes that have yielded big results.
Always supportive.
Linda is an experienced therapist who is able to distill my ramblings into what is important and what needs attention. Then, she provides tools and techniques I can use to work on my issues. I have worked with many therapists over the years and I highly recommnd Linda!
I really like Linda. She is very supportive and steers me in the correct direction. In general she is a very charitable person. She incorporates that through therapy by encouraging her clients to be the best version of their selfs as a key to happiness. She always praises the progress you have made on reaching your goals.
Linda is a very compassionate person and easy to talk to. She is happy to offer multiple suggestions of things to try in order to find something that works for you as an individual.
I love Linda. At first I thought our age gap would get in the way of her understanding where I’m at in life and my perspective. Instead it has provided wisdom and shed a better light on the situations. She is mature and teaching me the mature ways to handle situations. She never judges me she just asks me how I could think about it or handle the situation in a better way to make me happier. She is teaching me compassion and understanding for myself and others. She is teaching me to focus on reality instead of the nerve wrecking what if scenarios. She is helping me to grow as a person.
Linda is someone that you can be comfortable with SUPER quickly. Always puts positivity in when you don’t see it yourself. She gives you solid things to work on during the week. She is super kind and super sweet. I’ve enjoyed working with her so far and she has already helped me with things I’ve been struggling with. 10/10 recommend!! ✨
Very competent. Easy to talk to. Really smart person. I am very happy.
