    BetterHelp

    I wish I hadn't put off therapy so long!

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

    I thought about joining therapy for years and had to hear probably hundreds of BetterHelp ads on podcasts before I finally bit the bullet and gave it a try. I was instantly relieved to be in therapy and be matched with someone who totally got me. Our first session felt like a breath of fresh air after trying to manage my own mental health with no guidance for so long. I switched my subscription options to better suit my needs, and I still have unlimited text chat with my therapist throughout so I feel very well supported.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Schedule flexibility
    • Constant availability through messaging
    • The entry questionnaire that evaluates your needs and pairs you with the right therapist
    • More affordable than in-person therapy
    • Technology logistics (I got kicked off a session once switching from phone to computer and had to wait a few minutes to reconnect)

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