Words cannot describe how grateful I am to Ashley. I have seen numerous therapists in the past, but for the first time ever, when I leave a session, I feel empowered and not disheartened. Her kindhearted demeanor has been a perfect match for me and my sensitive personality. She is also funny and listens to all my concerns while providing helpful feedback to not only validate my thoughts and feelings, but offer constructive feedback and coping mechanisms as well. I feel seen and understood, and that alone has given me so much hope in becoming the person I wish to be. I highly recommend Ashley! Betterhelp has absolutely been blessed with having her as a part of their team.

About online counseling

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.
