I have been meeting to speak over chat with Digna every week for the past 3/4 months and have found her to be extremely helpful and comforting. She’s amazing to talk to and I don’t ever feel like anything I say is too much, Digna often can relate to me in some way in regard to social anxiety. It’s nice being able to talk to someone who knows first hand how it feels to experience something like this. She listens to everything I say and relates this back to me and is happy to let me guide the sessions depending on whatever I am thinking that day. She sends me worksheets related to the topic of discussion that week for me to work on so although we only have 45 minutes every week there’s always something for me to work on. I know I still have a long way to go to develop my self confidence and ease my social anxiety however I am confident I can do this with Digna’s help and I’m extremely grateful for this service through BetterHelp.

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.
