More about Scott

  • LMFT

What ails you? I believe many of our issues stem from a lack of understanding and acceptance. I would like to be able to provide a space in which you can explore and reflect on the experiences that have brought you to seek help.

I take a non directive, collaborative approach incorporating person centered, existential, interpersonal, and harm reduction philosophies.

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.

Great guy who really helps me pick apart my ramblings lol

Reviewed January 2023

Mr. Kilousky is absolutely my VIBE (I'm very young). He really does listen to what I say, and not only relates and shares on a personal level, but also helps me organize my rambling into concise statements. I appreciate that so much. It truly helps me realize my feelings when my thoughts don't quite make it clear to me. I appreciate a straight who makes me feel entirely comfortable. :)

Scott is very down to earth and has an uncanny ability to create and hold space for his clients, not an easy thing to do over telehealth. He offers empathetic feedback and sound guidance for those who are willing to let down their guard.

Scott is a great therapist. He’s great and mirroring and motivational interviewing. I would recommend Better Health in hopes that friends or family would be matched with him.

Extremely happy!

Reviewed March 2022

I’ve had about five therapists over the past few years of treatment, and Scott is the best one I’ve ever had. He’s willing to go into the dark places with you, but always asks if you’re comfortable doing so. He never pushes you into a conversation you don’t want to have. And when we are discussing a topic, he will speak honestly about what it’s bringing up for him in his life, and it’s really nice to receive that empathy and feel like I’m less alone. Even with all this, he still manages to be funny in a casual and authentic way. He’s really helped me on my journey and often has great insights that I think about throughout the week. If you want to dig deep with someone, or even just vent about relationships in your life, Scott is down for either.
