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.

Great listener and always has good advice and steps to better yourself
Hes awesome
Since our first session, I’m glad I registered with BetterHelp and with Emmanuel.
I find Emmanuel a talented and astute therapist. I especially appreciate what a great listener he is.
Emmanuel is kind, thoughtful and responsive. He will challenge you, but he will be fair and balanced. I have bounced between therapists and I have met my match. Highly recommend his perview.
The moments that I spoke with Mr. Acquaye it was refreshing and a safe place
Always available and reaching out to check in. Provides great real life examples to help relate. Tells everything straight forward and I couldn’t ask for a better therapist to meet my needs. In about 2 months I’m already feeling changes and more in charge. Highly recommended
Emmanuel has been a tremendous resource for Me. He has offered some valuable advice that has made a significant difference.
Emmanuel is a genuine and deep thinker who really has his client’s best interest at heart. Highly recommended
lovely therapist, a good listener and is very encouraging!
Emmanuel is exactly what I was looking for in a therapist: he listens, he is engaged, and he's honest. He is respectful of our time together and I leave every conversation feeling like my time was well-spent even if I didn't resolve all my issues.
I love working with Emmanuel! He’s a very empathetic Therapist who truly listens to me. He’s sweet and yet firm about his suggestions where applicable and that has been very instrumental in my healing journey. He also sometimes sends me encouraging quotes throughout the week, which always seems to come in at the right time! I’m truly grateful to have him as my therapist!
This man is an absolute professional. The rare blend of an extraordinary knowledge base and down to earth communicator. You WILL see yourself in a different light after a few sessions with Emmanuel. Don't hesitate a bit...select him as your Betterhelp therapist!
Emmanuel has helped me get myself back together after I almost completely fell apart. He listens, offers great advice, and always answers me back. 10-10 and I couldn't have done it without his help
