BetterHelp

BetterHelp is giving me so much fresh air
- Length of Use: Less than 3 months
Overall Experience:

I decided to try BetterHelp because my anxiety felt crushing. I wish I would have reached out sooner, but I'm so grateful I finally did it. My counselor is kind and calm and helps me think with a fresh perspective without any judgment. It feels safe to tell her all the things bouncing around in my head I'd never want my family or friends to hear.
Pros and Cons:
- Love the journal feature on the app, I can blurt out whatever I'm feeling at any time and choose whether I want to share with my counselor.
- My counselor never tries to convince me of anything. She's a great listener and encourager. Never judgemental.
- Having the app on my phone doesn't make counseling impersonal like I worried it would. With video calls, a real human is there.
- I wish I could set up recurring meetings. Right now the app only allows us to schedule one week at a time.
- Would be more helpful if sharing journal entries worked like a Google Doc, so I could go back and add something after it's without sending the whole entry in the chat again.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
