I am a 48 year old man that always thought I had it figured out, or could figure anything out on my own. The thought of having someone understand what I have gone through or am currently going through by analyzing me seem ridiculous. Well, I couldn't have been more wrong. I was too proud to seek help. I felt like telling my story, because I really felt like I lost my purpose. After finding Kari on Better Help, which she was recommended by the short questioner, I realized that she was perfect for what I needed. She did't judge me and took the time to listen. Always has constructive advice and has helped me refocus and center myself. I highly recommend her, she has extensive knowledge in her field and has been my weekly guiding light. Thank you so much Kari!!!

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.
