Masha is the best of the best! Literally a blessing, it’s been well over a year and a half and she’s helped me through so many ups and downs. Really helps me get back on track and locked back in! 10/10 !

More about Miriam

I do not believe in a "one size fits all" kind of approach. While uncomfortable feelings might be a commonality (especially in today's world,) I believe we are all individuals who learn, experience, and react to situations differently. One thing I know for sure, if everything was going "great" chances are you would not be reading this bio right now. BRAVO to you for taking this monumental step and investing in yourself!!!

Hi, I'm Masha Andreoni, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10+ years of professional experience and 47 years of lived experience. A majority of my work experience has been spent working with Veterans and Active Duty Reservists focusing on post deployment issues, substance abuse, and military sexual trauma. Today, I work with individuals/groups/families within a multitude of populations.

Most importantly, I do not believe that individuals fit snuggly into a particular mental health "box." For example, if diagnosed with PTSD... there is a good chance that anxiety, depression, insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present. If struggling with addictions...anxiety, depression insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present...you get it. My focus/goal is to understand where you are coming from, what you hope to achieve, avoid making any particular judgements/labels, and work together as we embrace this journey of solution focused change and betterment.

While I can take the time to tell you how my approach is warm, motivating, understanding, open....in the end, this is for you to decide. I can however assure you that regardless of diplomas achieved, I never stop pursuing education in this ever-changing field/world. I am here to be of service. With me comes my personality, knowledge, humor (when appropriate,) and respect! Truly looking forward to working with you.

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.

Masha is great. She is helping me built good boundaries by reinforcing that I don't need to feel guilty. If we get into something deep she will make herself available later in the day or over the weekend to make sure we give it the time it needs.

I've been seeing Masha for almost two years and she's terrific. Always smiling and engaged all the while she's poking you in just the right spots to get your attention. She's always responsive and has even reached out on her own during a tough time I had a few months back. Thanks, Masha.

Masha is kind hearted, honest, & funny. She puts in overtime making sure all of her clients gets their needs met. She has been nothing but helpful and supportive through it all. I am so blessed to be able to have met such an amazing individual even through all that she has been through. I am a very picky person and can tell you with confidence that Masha is the best! 5 stars!! Great job Masha! Keep up the amazing work as always :)

She is a fantastic therapist. I have had so much success with her through the app. She makes it so easy to feel comfortable and work through issues and has pushed me into a space that I am finding tremendous growth. She is passionate about her career and it reflects in her work. Always goes above and beyond the call of duty!

I returned to Betterhelp.com after discontinuing when my first therapist left to work elsewhere. It had been over a year and a half. I started therapy the first time after going through a brutal divorce. Recently, I had an incident happen and realized I needed to continue therapy and that is when I met Masha! From the moment I met her I knew she was empathetic and professional. This woman knows her stuff! I am so glad I got her as my therapist. She is highly interested and educated to help me navigate through this thing called life. Her understanding that my situation is very complicated and very extreme has helped me start to sort through this mess. I look forward to my therapy sessions with her. I cant talk about much of what has happened to me in my daily life but this therapist gives me a safe place where I can begin to heal and find new ways of handling things. I highly recommend this therapist. Don't hesitate to ask for her when you sign up! She is top notch and chose the right career path!
