    BetterHelp

    Surprised

    • Length of Use: Less than 3 months
    Overall Experience:

    The price is more than fair so I got it but was skeptical. They matched me first with a therapist who didn’t offer video chat sessions which is what I prefer. It would be nice in the initial questions if they asked your preference on that. I had trouble with figuring out how to request a new therapist but emailed BetterHelp and they got back with me fairly quickly and resolved it. A couple of days later I was matched with my therapist and scheduled my first session. I was nervous it would be weird or awkward and my therapist got right into the session and made me comfortable. I was able to tell her things I wouldn’t typically tell other counselors in the first session. It was like FaceTiming my friend. She checks in on me and so does BetterHelp all the time. It’s honestly a great service and I do recommend it!

    Pros and Cons:

    • Can’t catch COVID
    • No gas expense or traffic to fight
    • My therapist reminds me of me
    • Intro questionnaire should find out about counseling type preferences and deal breakers
    • Online customer support could frustrate certain people
    • If a therapist only offers text sessions I honestly don’t think BetterHelp should allow them

    Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
