I believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect and will meet you where you are at. I am a extremely good listener and also find it important for you to have feedback and be able to communicate openly with me. Finding the right therapist is not always easy and for some can be discouraging, I commend you for reaching out and truly hope I can be part of your journey.

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.

Tricia Betters-Black is extremely patient and always remember details we talk about so she follows up on these conversations when we talk again. Very attentive and kind!
She is caring and kind. She is supportive and has good suggestions to improve my life.
Tricia takes the time to understand my therapy needs and shifts her focus on the things that matter to me. She listens to understand and I don’t feel judged by her, rather supported. Definitely recommend her as a therapist!
One of the best therapists I have ever had and I’ve been around the block. I restarted to better help since I was traveling for work. Tricia found me in a rough state, but with her care I found myself guided towards a healthier way of life. Off most of my meds, can handle things life better, and navigated me through an extremely rough divorce.
Amazing therapist, tells you how it really is and helps work through your problems with ease.
Tricia is kind and caring. She is giving me good advise and ideas to better myself. I highly recommend!
Tricia is brilliant. Always listens and takes in everything I have to say no matter how trivial. Originally I was very anxious to start this process but she has put me at ease all the way through. She has provided me with so many solutions and methods to improve myself over such a short space of time. Tricia is a brilliant therapist and I would recommend her to anyone
thank you
Tricia always tries to work with my schedule and hers. Which is great! She’s a great listener, has great advice and feedback. She constantly checks up on me which is great cause sometimes I forget to check back with her etc. it’s great because she asks how everything is going from our last convo. She truly cares about you. She’s non judgmental, listens and has a passion for what she does. Super recommended!
Tricia was kind and considerate in helping me through a rough time and made me feel no shame about it
Dr. Betters-Black is fabulous and so supportive!!
She is amazing just straight up the best on this app i had 4 ppl before her and they were ok but when i became w her i felt like i finally found someone great. She is helpful listens ,sweet, and so much more highly recommend her to everyone.
Tricia listens well and I can tell she cares about what I’m going through.
First therapist for me and she’s amazing. I dreaded therapy for 17 years and avoided it at all costs. I had to go through 2 therapists to find Tricia. Now that I found her I have no regrets. I feel safe and heard and that’s important when you’re feeling broken.
she does a fantastic job at listening while providing an exceptional amount of feedback. She makes me feel heard and it feels as if she’s actually present when she is in our session. Does a fantastic job and provides great advice.
