    BetterHelp

    Great App but has its issues

    • Length of Use: 1–2 years
    Overall Experience:

    Overall, my experience with BetterHelp has been largely positive, but there are a few areas that could be improved.

    Number one, the fact that if you relocate to another state, you therefore have to be assigned a different therapist. People very often can form genuine bonds and connections with their therapist, bonds of trust and long-term communication. So when just because you moved to a different state, that means that has to all be thrown away, it’s kind of like losing a close friend.

    Number two. There are connectivity issues with the network and for this reason, sometimes it’s necessary to conduct the session via a telephone call as opposed to video chat.

    Other than that it is a great platform, particularly for those of us who live in isolated communities where it’s not practical for us to find a therapist locally. So in that respect, BetterHelp has been a fantastic boon to my life on every level and I highly recommend it.

    Pros and Cons:

    • User friendly due to remote sessions
    • Highly qualified therapists
    • Awareness of LGBTQ+ Issues
    • State moving limitations
    • Connectivity issues
    • Pricing

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