Tony is the best of the best

Jan 2024

Talking with Anthony is one of my favorite parts of the week, just because I feel like I get so much clarity when talking through my problems with him. He’s extremely empathetic and non-judgmental, and has brought up so many things that I hadn’t even considered before. A+, would recommend.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
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.

Sep 2022

Anthony is always very caring and compassionate and can make me feel better just by talking things out with him, let alone the advice and strategies he gives me.

K.A.·Jul 2022

Best counselor I’ve ever had, period.

T.O.·Jul 2022

Tony is great! He is exactly the counselor I needed. He made being open an honest about my problems easy. He helped me slow down, and make smarter choices, during a time I was completely overwhelmed and in crisis. I had no real expectations of help when I desperately first reached out. I couldn’t be happier with my experience! Thank you, Tony.

J.E.·Jun 2022

Great, warm, deepening and comforting sessions which were great during a time of extreme stress ! Thank you, Anthony!

C.A.·May 2022

T.Y.·Mar 2022

I’m very happy with Anthony. Couldn’t have chosen someone better.

T.O.·Jan 2022

In only two sessions, I have felt valued as a client. Anthony has been an amazing listener and understands what I struggle with and has offered great ideas for me to use immediately. I am very happy with the direction my therapy is going and I’ve only had two sessions. I can’t say I’ve felt that way with any other therapist.

S.O.·Jan 2022

Empathetic and non-judgemental, always makes time available feel like our time.

L.A.·Jan 2022

I have spent time with a few therapists and I have found that Anthony's experience and knowledge have been a profound help in helping me understanding my needs and learning to grow beyond my comfort zone. Anthony has helped me understand and work through the past traumas that affect my life.

J.A.·Jan 2022

Tony has been and will continue to be (as long as he is willing) an incredible motivator and source of guidance for me. I appreciate his council more than words do justice.

J.O.·Dec 2021

Anthony is an engaging and understanding therapist. His experience working in Alaskan villages provides him a deeper understanding and perspective on traumas and relationships. He understands that not every session is 100% and change doesn't happen over night, it's a process. Anthony is receptive to my needs and expectations, and provides useful resources as our conversations evolves. Highly recommend!

A.M.·Dec 2021

Anthony is INCREDIBLE! He is very responsive & helpful. He is super understanding & does everything he can to make sure I'm understood & my appointments are so helpful! 10/10 recommend!

K.A.·Nov 2021

My time with Anthony has been so grounding and calming. He is a great listener, and has given me very helpful advice and direction, during a time I REALLY needed it. I am suprised by how helpful my sessions (8, maybe more) with him have been. This experience has far exceeded my expectations, from the very first session! Thank you Anthony!

J.E.·Nov 2021

Anthony has been wonderful in helping me navigate new challenges in my open relationship, discussing both my individual traits and the interactions I have with my partner. He listens, and then offers insight that has clearly been tailored to my situation and considers the things I've said in past sessions.

I.R.·Nov 2021

Mr. Washington exemplifies a good listener, and a good coach: someone who guides you down the right path to your own answers, not someone else's and not a one size fit all answer. I recommend him to any person needing clarity in their life.

L.A.·Oct 2021

Anthony has a professional/relaxed vibe. He understands my struggles and is helping me through them. Thank you.

L.I.·Oct 2021

I was really fortunate to build a relationship with Anthony right from the beginning. I feel accomplished after our sessions and it truly am starting to feel like there’s a light at the end of this tunnel.

M.A.·Oct 2021

Anthony did a great job working with me trying to get to the root of my problems and set realistic goals for me to try to obtain. He also gave me a number of tools to help. I would recommend him 100%.

Anthony rocks

T.O.·Aug 2021

Tony is as open-minded and forward-thinking as they come. He asks thought-provoking questions and gives you plenty of room to rant if that's what you need. He offers the perfect blend of listening and guidance. I highly recommend him.

A.N.·Jul 2021

Anthony is absolutely the most understanding and non judgmental counselor i could have hoped to find. He is extremely knowledgeable in so many different areas its amazing.

J.O.·Jul 2021

Tony offers an awesome welcoming space to open up. Even when I start a session worried about approaching new topics he quickly puts me at ease. I appreciate his willingness to explore all topics whether or not he has a hisyory with them. He feels like a great teammate exploring all aspects of my life.

R.O.·Jul 2021

I appreciate the time and experience that Anthony has in counseling. I appreciate the talks and quick response. I appreciate the support. Thanks!

M.I.·Jul 2021

BetterHelp can help you grow as a person and find out what particular things you need to work on as a individual to become a best version of yourself.

J.A.·Jun 2021

I was concerned about being matched up with a male counselor. I have always sought out female providers for my health and mental health. I wanted the help and thought I should try. I’m very glad I have . Anthony has listened and shared techniques to use for anger and stress. All of them have been helpful. I have gotten the most out of the sessions compared to face to face sessions. I would definitely encourage anyone to choose Better Help.

L.U.·May 2021

Timely and professional.

L.A.·Apr 2021

Anthony is by far the most responsive and respectful counsel I have ever known. Intelligent and intuitive, he senses and predicts my needs no hesitation in a 10/10.

J.O.·Mar 2021

I am grateful to have Anthony’s help during a trying time. He offers sound advice and helpful solutions. I highly recommend!

M.A.·Mar 2021

He understands where I'm at even when I don't and I feel like I am rambling on. He has a way of putting things that helps me understand where I'm at and can pull form what I am saying then gives me tools to understand a bit better.

S.U.·Feb 2021

I really love Anthony! He’s extremely helpful and knowledgeable as well as being down to earth and easy to talk to. I feel like I really lucked out getting him as my counselor and would definitely recommend him.
