My chats with Ed give me confidence, new ideas, and points I hadn’t previously considered. Our appointments are only guided by questions, thoughts, and things that came up in the week. Ed is a great listener and I value him as my therapist and friend.

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.

Edmore is a great therapist, am looking forward to continuing on with counseling
I suck at keeping up with anything, but he's patient with me. Being the first therapist I can connect to after countless real life ones, it's fantastic we can just message instead of in person or video chat which makes me uncomfortable. That's why I love BetterHelp, and the fact he's in state makes me feel better too!
Providing excellent information and advice to help me through my struggles. Very calm and understanding.
Feel very heard, I feel very validated, definitely made me feel welcomed and appreciated when it came to my first real dive into therapy.
I appreciate that Ed uses a variety of therapeutic methods and resources. Ed is good at putting information together and sharing perspective. I feel listened to and no judgment.
