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.

Super cool dude. Very down to earth and compassionate
Thank you! The changes, steps, the tools and support that Errick has given me have been immense. Only gratitude!
Errick has been seeing me for about a month now. In the last month I've definitely created a challenging atmosphere for him. He's been extremely kind, understanding and supportive. We've covered a lot of ground in the three sessions we've had. In the past I've seen several therapists for years at a time. Errick has done more for me this month than they have in years. I highly recommend Errick if you're looking for somebody that's down to earth, non-judgemental and takes everything at face value. He's very kind, always responds in a timely manner and recommends different things if something isn't quite fitting what I need. I've never felt any negativity from him at all, I'll definitely continue seeing Errick as long as possible. I really do feel as if he's going to be the breakthrough therapist I've been seeking since I was a teenager.
Errick does his best to maneuver your brain into thinking positive. To be the best you. He's patient, and kind. He doesn't judge my humor, or my quirks, he just offers solutions to the issues I have with every day life. Keep Errick in mind when choosing your next shoulder to lean on.
I am amazed by the changes I experienced since I started my therapy with Errick. Is tough for me to open and talk about some issues, but Errick makes me feel comfortable and safe. Being a non believer in therapy for the most of my life, I am happy I decided to do it and happy with the path my life is taking. , Having Errick as my therapist is a good part of it.
One of the highlights of working with Errick is how he recognizes and celebrates my achievements, no matter how small. When I make progress, he takes the time to acknowledge it, which not only boosts my confidence but also reinforces my commitment to the work we’re doing together. It feels like having a coach who genuinely wants you to succeed and shares in your victories. Thanks to his support and the steps I’ve taken under his guidance, I’ve noticed a shift in my outlook. Things are looking more positive these days, and I attribute a lot of that to Errick's straightforwardness and encouragement. Overall, I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist who combines honesty with empathy and who is truly invested in their clients' growth.
Errick is a fantastic therapist, he's a pleasure to talk with, and always challenges me to dig deeper. He recognizes the progress I've made and encourages me on my journey.
I believe better help is a good alternative if you can't find a therapist in your city or home town. Therapy alone is expensive and I just needed support when leaving a 8 year relationship or how to communicate I definitely got the answers I was looking for. Unfortunately therapy isn't cheap. But with better help I was able afford a therapist for a month in order to get the answers I was looking for. My therapist definitely listened to my concerns and helped my self esteem.
Very nice good therapist
Eerick is a great therapist that is compassionate and patient. He understands where you're at abd gives you work to do each week to get better. Working with him has helped me so much and I love knowing that I can just reach out to him between sessions when I need help. He is really caring and loves helping!
Just started recently with Eric, but is making an impact on me since our first session.
helped me get a better hold on my life and help me love myself more and alot more very happy and have alot of gratitude
Great help motivator gave me hope again to maybe be happy and well
Errick has been an amazing therapist for me lately. In just one month we have made some big progress in my mental health. I found out a lot about myself already by working with E, and he has taught me to really reflect on why I am feeling how I feel. He has given me homework and exercise to work through between sessions so I can better myself. I am working through a lot personally but he never makes me feel bad for not getting everything done. I try my best to show up for myself and E every week and he is always so genuine and caring. I look forward to my talks with E each time!
Errick has helped me think about things in life in a different way. He challenges me in ways that help me move forward and break free from unhealthy patterns of behavior. He is positive and I look forward to our sessions and conversation.
Erik is an excellent therapist. He is science based and knows his stuff. His expertise is completely evident in the sessions and the general plan for treatment. He's also patient and understanding. I absolutely recommend Erik.
Errick has been great. He had helped me through some troubling times and helped me keep a positive outlook and gave me tools to help accomplish that.
Errick is very understanding and openminded
He makes sure you're always bringing in your A-game, he strives for you to be at your 100%, and tells you the steps to get there.
Helps me alot and cares about his clients well being very professional
Errick is excellent!
This is the first time I have tried therapy and it's been helpful since day one. I have a lot of unspoken words that I keep to myself so having a professional to talk to makes it a much more helpful setting for me to work on my negative self-talk. I will continue to work on bettering myself, and I'm glad I was matched with the right person to help me through it.
Errick is very passionate about what he does and makes a concerted effort to connect with clients. He shares his personal experiences when appropriate to establish topical credibility, and demonstrates empathy as well as compassion to address grief. Overall a solid therapist thus far.
Errick has been great in directing me through my journey. He’s responsive and keeps me honest.
He presents his self very well and has a great way of working with people and communicating with them I have just started having sessions with mr. Thornton and I am very glad that I got matched with him
