I am two sessions in and already feel like I am being given tools that I can actually affect real change with. I’ve seen other therapists in the past, but this is the first time I really feel listened to and like I’m being given actionable steps to improve. It is going to be a long road, I have A LOT to work through, but I feel hopeful that I can get to where I’m looking to be mentally, which is a nice feeling. Highly recommend Better Help and Kristen Hamill.

Helpful, listens to my concerns and thoughts, provides input and asks questions for me to clarify and to hear myself, my intentions, and cultivate a sense of self-awareness. Discusses processing and provides ways to mitigate and address root issues. Kristen is wonderful to work with and I’ve found a deeper sense of myself and peace within my situation.

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.
