Im so glad I was able to find Sonja through Betterhelp. I would not be where I am at in my mental health journey without her deft and caring hand. She is the reason why I recommend Betterhelp to anyone considering therapy.

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.

A great help and responds as soon as I needed some help
Im so glad I was able to find Sonja through Betterhelp. I would not be where I am at in my mental health journey without her deft and caring hand. She is the reason why I recommend Betterhelp to anyone considering therapy.
She's been very helpful, aiding me in navigating discoveries about myself.
I LOVE Sonja. She understands and addresses every concern I have and breaks things down in a way that I understand and can better cope. She’s hands down the best therapist I’ve had and I’ve been doing this for 8 years. Highly recommend! Thank you so much Sonja for everything you do !
Sonja is a very caring person that has given me tools to continue to heal and push myself past my own negative mental state. I’m happy to say she is my therapist.
Sonja has given me faith in remote therapy. It does not matter how far away you are from a person. Whats important is that they listen and Sonja is masterful at that.
I was shocked by how quickly I was able to open up to Sonja. Within two sessions, I've covered more psychological ground than I did with a year of therapy from my previous therapist. My only regret is that I didn't use this service sooner.
So far I’m enjoying my experience with Sonja. She is intelligent and compassionate. She is helping realize things I haven’t thought of before.
