Elizabeth Olson is amazing! I've worked with three other therapists, and she is the first to really listen and offer constructive, actionable, help. She is very good at catching the true meanings behind random phrases and is able to identify the connections between events. She doesn't sugar coat anything, and yet is very kind and responsive. She helps me in ways that no other therapist has been able to, and I am very grateful for her, and for Better Help.

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.
