Recent reviews
In the past, therapy and counseling were highly negative experiences and I signed up for BetterHelp with very low expectations. To say Dr. Womble blew those expectations out of the water is an understatement. His insight is non-judgmental yet effective in motivating change. He tells me what I need to hear (even if I may not necessarily want to hear it) and is clearly interested in helping me achieve my goals. Dr. Womble not only teaches but empowers me to heal from the past, use those skills to navigate the present, and view the future through a lens of hope. And I know I can bring setbacks to sessions to workshop and retool. Suffice to say, he is a remarkable psychologist and therapist and I am fortunate to work with him.

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.

Excellent
Dr. Womble is an excellent therapist - he listens, gives good advice and holds me accountable. I highly recommend him!
Dr womble is the main reason I’ve stuck with therapy so long this time around. Best therapist I’ve ever had
Dr. Womble has proven to be an empowering resource. His expertise and safely challenging approach are amazing tools for the healing journey.
Very excellent listening skills and great problem solving + understanding all of the variables involved!
A good therapist that listens. Your sessions will be more than talk therapy as he has experience in CPT, ADHD, and trauma.
It took only a couple sessions for Dr. Womble to begin organizing a pretty complicated personal history and current state of affairs to more manageable pieces so we could immediately start making progress. His approach is thoughtful and definitely designed to serve the individual's learning style so that their priorities and concerns can be addressed effectively. He isn't afraid to push back on unhelpful thought patterns but does it in a way that still preserves the safety of the person, and if they've signaled that certain topics or words are too difficult for the time-being he respects those boundaries and uses other approaches or language to address the thought pattern. He also tailors his approach in the platform to a pattern and rhythm that will work best for the client. Truly an amazing therapist.
I've really been enjoying working with Dr. Womble. This is my second experience with therapy and the first one was a horrible fit. Dr. Womble listens, asks the right questions, and gives great guidance to help me work through my issues. I highly recommend him and the betterhelp platform!
