So kind and helpful. She talks through whatever is going through my head with me and is so open-minded, thoughtful, and genuine about her responses. I never feel judged or belittled, she makes me feel heard/seen while also keeping things very grounded and real. Appreciate her so much!

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.

So kind and helpful. She talks through whatever is going through my head with me and is so open-minded, thoughtful, and genuine about her responses. I never feel judged or belittled, she makes me feel heard/seen while also keeping things very grounded and real. Appreciate her so much!
I have been having good sessions with Randy. I feel open and engaged in our interactions. I feel like we are working together to find practical solutions for my issues. Also, I have gained valuable insights on my journey of gaining better mental health.
Randy is a wonderful therapist. She listens, she really listens. She points out the uncomfortable bits that need working on - she doesn’t just tell me what she thinks I want to hear. I really appreciate her insights and trust her guidance. So grateful to have access to Randy through a virtual resource like BetterHelp!
Randy is so encouraging and understanding! It really helps me to be less anxious when I can express all my issues to her.
Randy is amazing, we worked together for 6 months and I would look forward to our weekly debrief every week! I've changed as a person and learnt a lot about myself and my habits and look forward to working with her again.
Amazing therapist. She listens, remembers, and gives practical and useful tips. Was great to work with her and I came a long way.
Randy is great, very encouraging and keeps me on track getting through my challenges.
Randy is great! She is a very encouraging person! I always feel better after talking to her!
I appreciate the insight and helpful tips to manage my anger.
Randy is insightful, empathetic and can speak truth without alienating her client. This is my first experience, and it's been eye opening.
In my live sessions with Randy, she asks good questions, actively listens, and is compassionate. In my most recent session, she recommended an exercise that has been simple to execute yet tremendously helpful. We’ve only had 2 live sessions and a small handful of messages, but I’m already receiving great benefit from our time.
