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.

She is great!
Shanta is an excellent therapist. I'm grateful I found a therapist with betterhelp who makes me feel heard, validated, and comforted. I really like her methods of therapy and we clicked right away. I highly recommend Shanta to anyone who is struggling right now.
Very supportive and understanding
Shanta is very personable and comforting. I took an instant liking to her, and I DON’T like meeting people!
She is a wonderful listener. She lets me get it all out and helps me to work though all of my feelings. She doesn’t judge or my situation. It feels like she really cares!
I have only had one session with Shanta, so it may be too early to say, but I found her to be quite attentive, and I felt very comfortable talking with her.
