Need help? Talk to a licensed pro from the comfort of your own home
When it comes to mental health treatment, good help is hard to find. Supply outweighs demand, prices are sky-high and people may look down on you for needing help. Not only that, but the physical process of getting out of bed, fighting traffic, paying high parking fees and sharing your darkest secrets with a stranger can be daunting.
Don’t let these barriers to mental health treatment stop you
Thanks to our sponsor BetterHelp, there’s a better way to find the support you need. If you’ve never talked to a therapist, don’t worry. Since this app is so easy to use, it’s accessible to anyone, from newbies to seasoned therapy pros.
You can speak face-to-face through a video chat or audio only via phone call. You can even chat through texts. Plus, you can change the format any time you want. This app empowers you to customize your therapy experience, which helps tailor everything to your comfort.
The best thing about this app is that you can change your therapist anytime if you feel uncomfortable with them.
When I used to go to therapy in person, I would often spend too much time with therapists I didn’t connect with because I didn’t want to hurt their feelings by switching. Once, I stopped going to a therapist I didn’t like and felt guilty about it, so I never returned to that office again, even though other therapists could have helped me.
With this app, you can easily find the right therapist without any awkwardness. You can do it all through your phone or computer screen and find your perfect match.
Since using BetterHelp, I’ve felt more comfortable in my skin — which has given me the confidence to go out, make new friends and deal with life’s curveballs in healthy ways.
