When I began therapy, I felt hopeless. Anxiety had a very strong grip on my day to day life and I couldn't get anything done. But since I began to speak with Franklin every week through BetterHelp I have seen and experienced a great deal of progress and mental relief. We have explored a lot of different subjects that I didn't realize initially were contributing to my troubles. It has been a very interesting and great experience. Though I am already worlds apart from where I was when I first started this (for the better), I intend to continue this journey for as long as I can! Franklin is a very unique character. He listens well to what I have to say and my concerns. His replies are eloquent and thoughtful. His demeanor is friendly and welcoming. Whether it is a session day or not, I can contact him at any time and I know a reply will be forthcoming. Overall, Franklin is just a very easy to talk to person. I was pleasantly surprised! I am eternally grateful to my therapist and BetterHelp!

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.
