My therapist is wonderful. She listens and tells me where I’m wrong and how to fix my problems. She treats me with respect. I definitely recommend BetterHelp for people who need it that can also afford it.

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.

I love my sessions with her. I am beyond thankful.
Donelle is really great, I trust her experience and when I talk to her she helps me ground my self and motivates and encourages me when I take steps to be healthier.
I am getting so encouraged from my sessions with Donelle. It has truly been enriching my life and I have learned so much from her. I look forward to my sessions and the time flies because we enjoy our conversations with each other. I have been growing so much and would highly recommend Donelle to anyone looking for a therapist who will guide you and tell you the TRUTH in love.
Well honestly I didn't know if I'd find the right therapist for me but Donelle showed me I definitely can, and I'm happy I found someone who fully understands me without even having to explain anything. So far I'm very pleased, thank you!
