I was considering seeking out some form of therapy and was hearing about BetterHelp on a couple of different podcasts. When I decided I needed to get started, I chose BetterHelp because of the variety of options. I can schedule a live chat session, or video and message between sessions. My counselor has been a good fit for me and knows how to get to the root of the problem.
I have had to re-schedule sessions because of scheduling conflicts as had my counselor. BetterHelp has always made it right by adding an extra week for missed sessions on the counselor's part and they are very fair and offer financial discounts in the beginning.
I was only going to do this for a couple of months because that is the money I had set aside for this. Now that I have been having weekly sessions, I have added this to my budget to make sure I can keep the therapy going. It has been the best decision for me.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
