She was very good at figuring out my core issue, helped me realise it too. She helped me learn how to heal myself by understanding myself and self- care through handouts. I recommend her if you have relationship issues and depression.

Now that we've worked together for a while, Lynn has really learned who I am. She asks questions and makes suggestions to help me move forward, and sometimes out of my comfort zone, while keeping my well-being in mind. I enjoy working with her.

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.

I have searched for a therapist for many years and have never met one that felt like the right fit. I was at the point of giving up on therapy all together. Then BetterHelp connected me with Lynn, and I decided why not just try. Wow, I am glad I did. I feel SO comfortable with her! Her approach to therapy is amazing. I can not say enough good things. Lynn has been a game changer for me and my very complex mental health!

Reviewed July 2023

Lynn has been my therapist for about four months. Our first few sessions were feeling each other out. Now that she knows me a little better, she is pointing out patterns and pushing me more. I appreciate having her as both a sounding board, mirror, and accountability partner. It keeps me honest.

Reviewed July 2023

I appreciate Lynn Reed’s attentiveness and seemingly genuine interest in my thoughts and concerns. She listens without interrupting, and doesn’t make me feel rushed when the session time is nearing its conclusion. Also, a feeling of judgment is non-existent. I can speak openly and honestly about my challenges without feeling embarrassed or ashamed. Lynn Reed offers valuable suggestions and draws me out without being overly intrusive. She’s pleasant, kind, and I feel as though I’ve known her for a long time. I’m impressed by the way she follows up with worksheets for me to complete so as to have a better understanding of who I am and what I’m dealing with. Overall, thus far I’m completely satisfied and pleasantly surprised by the quality of BetterHelp therapist Lynn Reed. I highly recommend her.
