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.

Amazing, helpful and supports me the whole way
Dru Bleem is a one of a kind therapist. She’s easy to talk to, makes me feel heard, and guides me in ways I hadn’t considered. Relatively, my issues are trivial, but Dru never makes them seem that way. She’s attentive, kind, and relatable
I really appreciated Dru Bleems' ability to listen fully without making you feel guilty for sharing too much. A lot of what I needed to work through involved me needing to verbalize decisions or thoughts that I had already which needed to be confirmed without any personal judgment involved. Dru also was very positive and bright in the way that she suggested ideas, which energized me and allowed me to feel supported in thinking about things from new perspectives. Overall I definitely recommended giving Dru Bleem a chance if you need some extra support in your life.
Dru is a good therapist. She's knowledgeable, she listens and always gives positive feedback.
The specific journal ideas to my concerns are helpful and appreciated.
she is a great therapist and she have been very helpful to me
Dru is down to earth. Talking to her about my divorce, career and dating has been a great experience. Talking to Dru is like talking to a nonjudgmental friend. She has wonderful recommendations for books and podcasts, and of course, I share the knowledge with my girlfriends and sisters. So many people have indirectly benefited from her recommendations.
Dru has been very helpful bringing internal thoughts out to the surface. Saying things out loud allow me to to actually process my feelings and work on ways to address them and deal with them. Dru makes it easy to open up, my time with her has improved my communication with my spouse. I would recommend her to anyone.
Dru is really, really sweet and a great listener and provides lots of resources to utilize outside of counseling as well. She is open-minded and willing to learn from her clients, too. I really look forward to my sessions each week to get her professional feedback about everything I have going on. I would encourage anyone thinking about counseling to realize the more you put into it, the more you will get out it. I am liking the Better Help platform more than in-person counseling because it provides so many ways to work on mental health on a daily basis, beyond one video session per week. And knowing that Dru is there cheering me on to utilize these resources is really awesome.
When I first started sessions with Dru I was very closed off, over the last several months she’s helped me deal with my grief amongst other things and I’m so great full to have her and continue sessions with her.
She's helped me greatly I am quite fortunate to have her as my counselor
Dru is so down to earth and approachable. I can’t imagine sharing life’s issues with anyone else. I’m so grateful to have found her!
I have found working with Dru over the last few months to be very helpful! Dru is optimistic, she takes the time to listen to and understand what you choose to share. She provides her feedback and suggestions in a kind, caring way. She has helped me to view situations through a different lens which helps to expand on my own growth through life!
Dru is a great listener, thoughtful in her responses, and well equipped to guide clients on their therapy path.
I look forward to our weekly chats. As I’m trying to work through my confidence issues and get out of this abusive relationship . It’s nice to have an ear and someone to mirror back. This Relationship is a pattern for most of my life. So having someone to walk me through it to end it is exactly what I need right now so that I can move forward.
Dru has such a unique ability to listen, provide support and guidance and pose questions aimed at getting you to really think about things in a new light. She's very easy to talk to and very sweet. Would highly recommend her!
I have quite a way to go I’m learning to help myself. But I feel like I have become quite a way from the dark hole all I felt I was in. I feel there’s some light but I do have a way to go depression is not easy. Self-esteem is also something you can create overnight. It’s good to have someone listen and have their feedback as my counselor has done with me.
