Extremely happy with the therapist that BetterHelp connected me with. He knows how to pull information from my stories and from my questions and answer things and just the right way he shows me how unhealthy things can be looked at in a healthy way to heal and improve. Highly recommend

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.

I’ve seen several therapists over the years, and Andrew has been the absolute best fit for me! Whereas most therapists seem to spout off advice and offer too much perspective, Andrew listens, and I sincerely appreciate that about him. He lets me work things out while I’m talking, and THEN interjects and encourages. If you’re someone who needs their therapist to listen and be patient, Andrew is your guy!

Reviewed August 2024

After having several sessions with Andrew, I am very impressed by his methods of therapy. It feels like I am having a real back and forth with someone that wants to see you live your best life but is understanding to how that looks different for everyone. I very much appreciate his honesty and transparency with clients. Not only do I feel like there is a healthy respect and communication with one another: but he has also introduced custom tailored effective means to help manage my emotions & day-to-day. While Rome wasn't built in a day, I value his insight as I build up my colosseum brick by brick. Give Andrew a chance if you want to make changes but don't know where to start. He is a great resource to have on your side.

His work is a wonderful mixture of intuition and observation. I trust his feedback! (And, I was a practicing therapist for 23 years!)

Well I've only completed a couple of sessions with Charles so far. He's good about recommending resources that will help with whatever is going on, he doesn't flinch at your issues, and he clearly has a heart for God and the desire to help. Great counselor, would definitely recommend giving him a call.

He is a genuinely welcoming therapist. He listens well and prompts you to reflect. He does not push you to share, but will allow the conversation to naturally flow. He allows you to come to your own conclusions based off of what you are open to sharing.

Andrew has been nothing but friendly, kind, respectful, helpful to me since his first message to me to introduce himself. He has listened, responded to messages to give feed back. He has encouraged , keeps trying to help me with sudden loss of my husband. He pushes at times but holds back when I need space to control my emotions. I don't trust people , takes me awhile to be comfortable with people but Andrew has earned my trust & made me feel comfortable in my on line video sessions. I would be shocked if you had a session with him and did not find him all the things I have said.

This was my first time trying a solution like BetterHelp. Initially, I did it to assist in my work - so I could share it with others. I was linked with Andrew and am very grateful. He has been supportive yet challenging and has offered a new way for me to approach my grief. It has been quite helpful to date and I highly recommend him to others.
