I have been seeing Iris for a little over a year now. I've gone to therapy for many years before seeing her and have seen a number of therapists. However, Iris has hands down been the best I've ever seen. I have never clicked so well with a therapist before. Off the bat, I felt no judgment from her. Her calm laid-back demeanor was very inviting. She has such a deep understanding of mental health, more so than what I've experienced with other providers. She not only created a safe space for me to open up but was very proactive in giving me goals and homework so I could get out of my comfort zone, challenge myself, and take control of my anxieties. I look forward to our appointments and have made more progress in a short time than I ever thought possible. I absolutely recommend Iris to anyone and everyone.

I have tried several places to talk to someone safely. I have been let down over and over again, until I finally tried betterhelp, which I kept hearing about. I answered all the questions and was definitely matched with a great therapist. I trust and feel safe with Iris and what I have to share. Her suggestions are great and a work in progress for me.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Iris has really allowed me to explore why I have been having such a hard time lately and I really do feel much better after our sessions! She listens and asks the right questions to get me to see where the issues are coming from! She has truly been a blessing I wish I did this sooner…
