Very attentive and understanding of everything I have to discuss. Even understanding when I don't need a specific topic for discussing; simply in the growth and development of Therapist/Client relationship. I consider Adam to be a valued friend and confidant.

Hello! My name is Adam Hewitt, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Missouri. I have been with BetterHelp since 2021 after spending several years in private practice as a mental health therapist and substance abuse counselor. I've always been passionate about helping people overcome their challenges. When it comes to therapy, I like to keep things friendly and honest. I will never talk down to you or make you feel like a burden. I find it incredibly rewarding to see the joy on people's faces when they realize just how strong they can be, whether it's facing their fears, overcoming addictions, or taking control of their lives.
As for my therapeutic approach, I focus on your strengths. I believe that everyone has innate abilities that can help them achieve their life goals, and it is my job to help you find yours. I take a mindfulness based approach, and am very sensitive to how technology and culture intersect to make our lives more complicated. I've worked significantly with people dealing with trauma, substance and gaming addiction, and systemic oppression. My aim is to help individuals become empowered to go out into the world feeling in charge of their lives.
I don't consider myself to work for an agency; I'm here because of you. My promise is to let you take the lead to make the changes in your life that are meaningful to you. My hope is that my openness and positive attitude will make you feel trusted and inspired to live the life you deserve.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling.

Very attentive and understanding of everything I have to discuss. Even understanding when I don't need a specific topic for discussing; simply in the growth and development of Therapist/Client relationship. I consider Adam to be a valued friend and confidant.
After a few sessions, I’ve already appreciated and felt improvement in my life based on the skills that Adam has helped me work on. He is a very available, honest, genuine and knowledgeable therapist that has challenged me to stay on track with my goals and constantly offers ways to improve on things. I’m excited to continue to work with Adam going forward.
I have had 2 sessions with Adam thus far and my life has already changed drastically for the better in a matter of a week. Adam’s ability to draw upon several therapeutic approaches to tailor a style unique to your situation is exceptional. I look forward to our sessions as both times I have left with a sense of hope and empowerment to tackle new challenges, learn more about myself, and thrive.
Although I have only met with Adam a few months weekly, I really feel hopeful in the directions were going and I feel very understood and supported. He is my third therapist through BH, third times a charm. I would highly recommend him. I can say that honestly, especially if you are Neuro spicy, he gets it, so helpful. I appreciate being able to work with someone who understands the way my brain works after wasting so many decades. It makes such a positive difference: Helpful, efficient, productive, positive, less stressful.
I wish I could have found Adam years ago, but I’m so grateful he is in my life now. Truly, a life saver and an inspiring, insightful, and wonderful person to have in my corner. I find myself really looking forward to our meetings every week because Adam is really my rock - the place where I can say what I need to, feel what I need to without judgement or prejudice; just total acceptance and respect. I couldn’t thank Adam enough for allowing me to view certain hardships another way and giving me the tools to combat them. But I’m thankful I can tell someone who is seeking an extremely kind, real, thought provoking, and honest therapist (with an incredible nerd knowledge) - Adam might just change your life. As he did mine.
He’s a genius. He was clearly meant to do this. He’s probably one of those people that would’ve been amazing at anything. I’m so grateful he chose helping people.
Great help and support while I'm dealing with possible divorce
He has been a great therapist
Adam is very personable. He is laid back but still professional. A good listener and everything you want in a therapist.

Adam has made a huge impact on life. I can't thank him enough for what he has done for me. He helped me develop self-confidence in myself to set boundaries in relationships that are not healthy. He's a fantastic guy.
Adam is a really relatable guy who's easy to talk to and has helped me to set goals for myself and provides me with reliable accountability. Its only been a couple of weeks, but I'm already seeing an improvement in my life.
Adam is very caring and understanding He puts up with me really well. I am trying to hear his voice more when I start listening to my hurting talk

He’s great. Friendly and professional. Knows how to make you feel comfortable while address main focuses of your reason being in therapy.
So helpful!!
Adam is an excellent therapist and I am So grateful for his help. He has the ability to put me at ease, without worrying about being judged and this makes me feel comfortable enough to really open up and seek the help I need. He always reminds me that I can reach out if I want to drop a thought or ask a question or bring up something we are working on and this is really very comforting. Adam is an upstanding very professional and knowledgeable therapist that is already helping me with my anxiety, stresses and even helping me go back to my childhood to get to the root of the sources. , Highly recommend. Thank you!
Adam was great to work with. Listened to me without judgement and provided sound counsel throughout our sessions. Would recommend him and BetterHelp in general and will not hesitate to connect with him again if the need arises.
Adam is real down to earth. Important thing is Adam hear you and help you understand your issue and address them one at the time.
This guy knows what’s up. I’ve gone through many therapists and Adam is the only one that’s truly been able to help. Therapy takes on a whole new meaning for me now, and I owe it to Adam for being so genuine in his practice. I don’t feel like I’m talking to a psychology textbook, but a real person willing to explore all options that work best for an individual. He’s funny and will be really honest, in a nice way of course, and overall just a cool therapist. I can’t recommend him enough.
My first time ever having therapy was with Adam. He has been extremely helpful, understanding and professional. His attention to detail and unique ability of combining bits of information to create the full picture makes him a pleasure to talk to. Adam helps in identifying aspects and guiding me to solutions that help cope with my stress, anxiety and trauma. He is both professional and compassionate. I’m making better choices, facing difficulties with a more level-head, and I genuinely look forward to my sessions because I come away from it with something even if I felt like I talked about nothing. Adam has treated me with respect and dignity throughout, even when talking about my somewhat sordid past. He is very attentive and helpful with understanding my own emotions and behaviors which makes me more attentive and understanding of others. I greatly value the opportunity to work with Adam and would recommend him to anyone.
He is so incredible
Love working with Adam. He listens, engages me on a level I appreciate and that indicates he is truly working with me as an individual. The convenience of multiple methods of communication and his timely responses is great. BetterHelp has been great for me, and Adam is amazing. Thank you!
Super helpful! Gives great advice
Welcoming- is the best review I can give, first time therapy goer, it’s supposed to be a growing process which is usually painful but that process has felt welcoming and accepting.
Does a really good job listening and trying to genuinely understand what I'm saying, even if there are sometimes differences in the understanding of words.
Adam is the best therapist I've ever had, and I've had a few. He listens, engages the topic at hand (and me) in a way that feels relaxed but very attentive to detail. The thing I love the most about working with Adam is that it doesn't make therapy feel like work, like a burden I have to carry. The conversation flows, I feel free to direct it into the territory I want to cover, but I also know that Adam will offer challenges to my way established way of thinking (in a good way!) and advice on ways to reframe my thinking when I am getting myself stuck in a rut - even within a session. Adam's been very helpful in only a few weeks. Very appreciative of his professionalism and caring, engaging approach.
10/10
Adam is dedicated to the patient and practical, down to earth advice. He listens and wants to help you turn your life around using concrete actions, which I appreciate.
Adam is truly an incredible therapist. I had always pictured myself as someone who couldn’t find peace talking to someone like this but it’s honestly been such a godsend. He is incredibly laid back, which takes the pressure off of opening up. I appreciate his opinions and expertise because he makes it very easy to talk to him. I continue to look forward to working with him each week, which is truly an awesome feeling! I would highly recommend speaking with him. He gets right into the nitty gritty and really makes you think.
Adam has been extremely helpful- I was struggling sorting through my mess of emotions and feel like I finally have somebody whose on my side to help me work through all of my challenges I look forward to our weekly chats. Still have a lot of groundwork to cover but I feel like I at least have some sort of path no matter how rocky it is.
Adam is insightful and finds the major issues fast and precisely. He has been wonderful to talk to, and was very respectful towards my religious background.
Adam is very nice, enthusiastic and inspiring, and it is very relaxing to talk to him. He is very kind to schedule the appropriate time, all these make everything go on smoothly
Adam is very friendly and easy to talk to. In the past, I’ve had experiences with therapists that I didn’t feel comfortable talking to, and it’s a difficult experience. Adam is relatable, comforting, experienced and overall laid back enough to make me comfortable talking to him. Highly recommend :)
