Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s always very easy to talk to and helps me find ways to deal with my problems
Great listener
I am so grateful to have found BetterHelp and even more grateful to have been matched with Rachel. She listens so closely, shares thoughts and ideas that may be helpful and has been so “spot on” with them. I really feel heard and understood.
RJ has both saved my mental state and my marriage. Rachel has helped me realize and come to my own conclusions, what I need most in my life and what is actually going to benefit me best. She has guided me through conversations I've had with others as well as conversations I've had to myself. I've learned how to love myself stronger, make my needs important and feel imported to authentically and intentionally address issues with confidence and truth behind them. I'm no longer afraid of communicating because I see it all as growth now, instead of failure. I would recommend Rachel to anyone and the ends of the earth! 1.5 years in, give or take every other week, but it's been my best relationship yet! ❤️ Thanks RJ for all that you do and all that you give others and hold space for.
Absolutely the best therapist ive ever had.
Rachel has been fantastic. Easy to connect with and sincere and very real. I’ve thrown a lot at her and she’s been great.
Rachel is one of those people you’re delighted to cross paths with! She’s knowledgeable, informative, encouraging and holds you accountable to the work you are willing to embrace. I wouldn’t be in the headspace I’m in now without her guidance. It was important to have someone I could speak with in a safe & productive environment to make changes for myself & those around me. Rachel has made that a reality & shown me change is unlimited.
I have had the most progress with working with Rachel. She is professional, empathetic, straight forward and kind. I feel that if I had been working with her sooner I would have been in a much better place earlier. Very thankful for her and I always look forward to our sessions.
Rachel was such an amazing therapist. This was my first time ever seeing a therapist & I have nothing but great words for Rachel. She was super understanding of what I wanted out of therapy & I enjoyed meeting with her every single week. She really does care about her clients & gives amazing advice & feedback. Thank you once again Rachel! If I ever need to restart therapy You will be my go too!
I absolutely LOVE Rachel! I feel like she's been the first person to truly hear me out and go into deep detail about my issues. ❤ Therapy is now something I look forward to instead of dread.
One of the best! Super nice and understanding. She listens and takes wonderful notes. She truly cares about you.
Rachel always knows what to say when, she's extremely helpful in managing difficult situations and just having someone to talk to regularly. From day one I knew Rachel was a great therapist.
Rachel has been an incredible help to me. I always appreciate her drive to find solutions to the challenges that arise. I love that she can help me find peace through the chaos of my life. I leave our sessions with great insights and goals on how to move forward.
Rachel's solution focused approach has been exactly what I need. I leave our sessions with specific goals, ideas and a sense of peace. I appreciate her gentle prompting and perspective.
She’s been very easy to talk to and has helped me figure out ways to calm down my craziness.
