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.

Simone it’s been really helpful and kind, and her voice has some magic to keep you calm.
Simone has been very kind, compassionate and understanding. She takes time to listen and picks up on things in what I have said to really help get to the core of what I am feeling. I have been very grateful for her support so far and it has been great to be able to talk to someone who listens and responds without judgement.
Coming to betterhelp was a huge step for me, I had a lot going on that I really need some help deciphering, Simone was a great help. Simone also went out of her way to fit me in when I needed to speak to someone sooner than the next available appointment. Thanks Simone!
Initially I was unsure how online therapy would be a positive experience. Simone, after 2 sessions, has made me feel very comfortable and we have explored areas that have allowed me to reflect and correct a number of thoughts I had swirling around in my head.
Simone is an extremely understanding person who always encourages me to appreciate the positive side no matter how bad things get. I always end up having a small but manageable and achieveable goal every week thanks to her and she makes me feel grateful and happy that i finally reached out to therapy :))
Professional and caring
I'm extremely impressed with the level of care and professionalism she brings to every session. One thing that stands out to me about this therapist is her ability to listen and truly understand what I am saying
