Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

My therapist, Eric, has truly helped me get my life back on track. He is exactly the kind of therapist I need. He is a straightforward Christian who understands. I am very grateful for the help he has provided me!
Great so far.
I came to Eric with a heavy heart as I was finding myself at a crossroads for divorce. His guidance through my grief and feeling seen and supported was big for me. I truly felt like I was going crazy and he made me feel validated. I also appreciate the worksheets he provided to help me better understand how to process certain topics we discussed. Thank you Eric
Eric is excellent at bringing in core, virtuous Christian principles into the therapy. He helped me to see my pitfalls and shortcomings and to better understand who I am.
I’ve never had a male therapist and I was a little reluctant at first, but it has been a positive experience. He told me from the start how he was very direct in his communication and told me he understood if that wasn’t ok with me. I do appreciate that directness and his suggestions for “homework” outside of our sessions.
I joined BetterHelp hoping to find the support I needed to get through a few rough patches in life. Eric began by explaining how the therapy process worked with BetterHelp, what to expect from each session and the service in general, then explained his approach to working with clients. In this way all my questions about therapy were answered, and my expectations completely managed. Eric's calm demeanor and willingness to challenge my point of view in respectful, creative ways has been instrumental in providing clarity, support and an optimistic outlook as I navigate huge life transitions. I feel seen, heard, and understood. If you're new to the process or in need of someone who will counsel you with great compassion and caring, Eric is a wonderful therapist to consider!
I have never had a good experience with a male therapist until now. He is caring, he is a great listener, and he brings things to my attention even if I don't necessarily want to hear it. It helps.
Eric is awesome. He is not only a therapist but also has been able to offer me wise counsel in areas he’s experienced in, like fatherhood, career, and my spiritual journey. He is professional and clearly takes his job seriously. Thank you Eric!
I have had two sessions with Eric so far and would highly recommend him.

Eric Aldaco is very optimistic positive person. He is respectful. I really love his session
Eric was a great Christian-based therapist who helped me through a difficult patch in. my life. He was consistently able to provide guidance grounded in scripture and as a fellow Christian male, he very much understood the issues I was grappling with and asked thoughtful questions to help me arrive at a more concrete understanding of my psyche.
Eric was fantastic. He’s a great listener and very understanding. Would definitely recommend him!
Eric’s approach to therapy was balanced and very attentive. Although we only did one cycle of 4 weeks I was able to grow and act through our sessions. His homework was practical and applicable, if you’re lucky to enough to match with him then know you’re in good hands.
Eric is professional, articulate and caring .
Eric is great, available, genuinely listens to my concerns. Very helpful 10 out of 10 I recommend.
