I feel relief in having Dr. Lockton as my therapist words can’t describe how grateful I am to her for working with me and her expertise. She has been the consistent support I could rely on during a difficult period. I would talk to her each day if I could. I would want to continue working with her on a regular permanent basis as I don’t believe you need have a therapist only when faced with challenges.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s is understanding
Great listener, intuitive.
She’s an excellent psychologist. She follows up and cares
Dr. Lockton has helped me grow so much as a person. I was hesitant at first to just let anyone in but she has helped me to challenge myself in new ways. I’m currently learning to set boundaries with my brother. I’d recommend her to anyone I know who I think could benefit.
My experience with Dr. Lockton was extremely positive. She certainly didn't just check a box or just tell me what I wanted to hear, she listened and responded in a way I knew she heard and understood me. I have already recommended Betterhelp to a co-worker and told her what a great experience I had with Dr. Lockton. I also appreciate Dr. Lockton checking in just to see how I'm doing.

In my decade of therapy, I have never had a therapist like Dr Lockton. She's been just above and beyond at everything. She listens and interjects at all the right times. She makes me feel like things will be okay. I am so grateful to have found her.
