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.

Reviewed April 2022

Liz is an amazing therapist! She checks in on you when you haven’t responded in a couple of days and makes sure she understands what your concerns are. Additionally, she never gives her opinion she just asks questions to help you understand why you feel that way. Liz is also understanding of your time and is flexible in making schedules coincide. Overall, I would highly recommend her as she is a great listener and helps you work through a plan to get to where you want to be.

Reviewed November 2021

Liz has been a life saver for me during a very difficult time in my life. She is respectful and seems to have the right advise to give to look at the situation in a different way. The nuggets of truth she provides really makes me ponder my challenges in a different way. Thank you Liz!

Reviewed March 2021

Elizabeth is really great. She takes the time to listen and provide feedback for me to think and reflect why I feel a certain way. She does follow up checking in on my progress throughout the week and it’s nice knowing someone cares. I almost don’t want to recommend her because I want to keep her all to myself haha! No but in all seriousness she is great and offers open ears with no judgement.

Reviewed September 2020

Very caring and listens extremely well. Offers good thought process questions and engages in your needs / focus.

Reviewed August 2020

I’ve been struggling for a while now with anxiety and depression surrounding big life changes/covid/divorce, and Elizabeth really feels like someone I can trust to share my struggles. Better yet she encourages me to pursue and recognize my triumphs, and provides support/encouragement and validation. She also provides a really thoughtful and empathetic, yet discerning/constructive perspective. I’m really thankful for the weekly sessions and highly recommend Better Help based on the experience I’ve had with Liz. Cheers
