About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Elizabeth Is a very good listener and has genuine care and advice for my situation. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking help

Elizabeth is truly heaven sent. Talking to her helps me so much in thinking clearly about decisions and actions + she makes me feel heard, seen, and most importantly understood. I have been working with Elizabeth for quite some time now and I can say I have grown and developed the skills to manage on my own, and see life differently with her help in guiding me in the right direction, and keeping me focused on whats most important in my life right now. I absolutely love our talks and I am beyond grateful to have her as my therapist, although I really see her as my dearest friend. If you ever get the chance to talk with Elizabeth about your troubles, just know you will have a safe space and you will be understood. I don't know where I would be without her guidance, respect and care. Thank you!

Elizabeth has been a real port in a very turbulent storm for me, over the past few years. She is kind, but firm and very knowledgeable about behavioral health therapy and finding ways to help me, help myself. I will be forever grateful to her, and betterhelp, for guiding me through some of the roughest periods in my life. I feel stronger and so much more capable of taking care of my own mental health needs, all thanks to Elizabeth Cali and her expertise. I’m now on a maintenance schedule, with a session only once a month, which is just perfect for checking in. Thank you! ☺️

Elizabeth is kind, funny, attentive, and timely. She makes time any day of the week and is always available through chat! I’ve seen her twice only and I look forward to seeing her each week.

She's great - empathetic, caring, insightful and direct. Very much what I need!

Elizabeth has been a god send to me and my mental health journey! I am so grateful for all her professional, sound advice and strategies in dealing with my issues. Just what I was hoping for in a therapist. She is empathetic, yet challenges me to reach higher and resolve my own issues, using sound techniques. Thank you so much Elizabeth!

Elizabeth is wonderful. She’s helpful and caring. She always checks in with me and makes sure my concerns are taken care of.

Elizabeth has been so sweet and helpful and flexible especially with forms of communication. She’s very patient and respectful, making her easy to talk to. And she checks in with me multiple times through the week just to make sure I’m ok. Her motto of “take what you need and leave the rest” gives me a sense of dignity making me feel like I can choose what’s best for myself on my own terms, just with some pointers in the right direction.

Elizabeth has been extremely supportive. She is a terrific listener and a has helped me look at my future and past life choices with more clarity than I was able to do on my own.

She seems great at her practice

Elizabeth is wonderful, and I am very pleased to have been paired with her.

She was patient while dealing with my heavy depression and anxiety. With her methods, I managed to get myself under control and potently saved my life. I'm glad to of been paired up with her!

She is my favorite human!!

Elizabeth Cali has been amazing!! She listened and always helped me get through each of my issues. She provided me with additional resources to do the work I needed to help me and held me accountable but also praised me for the work I've done. Thank you for everything!!

A gifted and knowledgeable therapist, Elizabeth provides support and structure. I recommend her highly.

Great therapist and I learned a lot!

Elizabeth is truly heaven sent. Very informative and understanding.

I have been working with Elizabeth for a few months and it has been great. She always listens to me and validates how i feel. She provides with the best help and best advice.

Honest, down to earth, not someone to sugar coat things, and if that is what your looking for she is the one. She helps you look into your patterns so you can be conscious of the decisions you make. She feels like an expert family member! haha. She is funny, very knowledgable, and will help you push forward. Its been amazing to have her.

Elizabeth has truly been a lifesaver! Thank you!

She’s wonderful and has really helped me through a rough time.

Elizabeth is great! She made me feel at ease from the moment we had our first session and let me know that I wasn't alone and I was going to get through this with her.

My therapist is very helpful and responsive, the Betterhelp platform could be fine tuned however.

Elizabeth has already helped me in enumerable ways! She is professional, patient, calm, very knowledgeable and exactly who I needed as my therapist. Most of all, she doesn’t simply agree with me as I vent about life’s trials. She challenges me to deal with things in a different, productive way that has been very beneficial. My family members notice the difference in my attitude and manner. Thank you so much

Elizabeth is wonderful. Only therapist I have had results with. She helped me with my self esteem tremendously after and hsv diagnosis. She helped me focus on myself and how to cope with past traumas. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Love her to pieces. Finally someone understands me.

Elizabeth has honestly been such a rock in a storm and helped me tremendously to change my life in positive way while overcoming my traumas

Elizabeth has been such a huge help over the last few months in helping me identify my triggers, recognizing my trauma and the sources of that trauma, and helping me create a plan to make the changes I know I need to make. She listens without an ounce of judgment and for the first time in a very long time, I feel heard.

Elizabeth has been a wonderful support. She has helped me work through some personal issues that I thought would not be able to go away. She gives great advice, helpful resource material, and really helped me to see how I can be happy again. Thank you Elizabeth!

Elizabeth is great. After 18 months of hard work I am finally out of my depression, dealing well with anxieties, and ready to "graduate". Can't say enough nice things about her, she is a caring and knowledgeable therapist. If there was a way to vote for "Best of Better Help" she would totally get my vote.

Thank you

Very nice and helpful women

Everything is well so far, she seems to make me comfortable sharing my thought with her, and very attentive

Great therapist. She genuinely shows concern and cares and wants to help. She’s helped my very much in less than a year and I couldn’t be more happy with a therapist to get matched with.

I had a few sessions so far and I am very pleased with the level of support and attention I am receiving from Elizabeth. She also provides me with resources to learn more about how to deal with my concerns.

In the short time I’ve worked with Elizabeth so far, I’ve felt really comfortable with her as my therapist. She’s definitely knowledgeable and understanding in our sessions, as well as super easy-going. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist to help me better understand myself and my mental well-being. :)

Elizabeth is fantastic. She listens to you and really tries to help you moving forward. She responds incredibly fast and she also has great hours to select therapy sessions from. Even uses humor in our sessions (when appropriate) and I appreciate that.

Elizabeth Cali makes me feel seen and is extremely supportive.

Very happy with Elizabeth Cali.

She has been patient with my many many issues for sometime now. Always suggesting conventional and non conventional exercises and treatments to deal with my daily problems. Many of them have been helping as I slowly gain back my confidence and motivation. She has also responded to any emergencies I may have quickly and has guided me through my panic attacks and mood swings. 11/10 would recommend!

Elizabeth truly helped change my life for the better. I always felt comfortable to be myself and let out everything on my mind, knowing she would truly listen and provide the feedback I needed to make progress. She saw my potential and guided me to reach it every session, and as a result I have done so much healing. She fosters such a healthy and professional yet personable and comfortable client-therapist relationship. She is so easy to speak with, provides helpful worksheets, checks-in with you, and is so REAL. Anyone would be lucky to work with her. I am in such a better place than I was when I began. Thank you Elizabeth.

Elizabeth has been, and I'm absolutely sure will continue to be, an amazing force for transforming my life for the better. Over the course of the last few months we have talked about 3 sort of major aspects in my life. Every time we add one of these things, I come away with a radically improved ability to deal with the problems affecting me in that area. I can FOR SURE say that I would not have been able to manage these positive changes so quickly without her help. She is the absolute perfect combination of traits that I was looking for in a therapist. <3

Elizabeth is wonderful and caring! Very knowledgeable and she understands and helps with every situation I am going through!

Elizabeth really helped over the course of this year. She is a great listener and I feel like she really understands me and supports me.

She is very responsive and helpful with work sheets for me

Elizabeth is down to earth. It’s like speaking with a trusted friend.

I have been writing back and fourth with her even before our first appointment she kept in contact with me and gave me ideas to help myself. Our first appointment was great and we talked a lot and she gave me great ideas.

Elizabeth has been a lifesaver for me! She has given me strategies that help me focus on the here and now . She encourages me to take care of myself which is hard to do in the society we live in.

Elizabeth very gentle and completely understand my problem snd how I have to work on it together, I feel after 2 weeks so much better, my English not a perfect but she’s help and understand me very well, so recommending for everyone, don’t be afraid to talk someone!!! Thanks

Incredibly caring and supportive

Ms. Elizabeth has been so understanding and considerate, and we only had one session. Cannot wait for our future sessions

Elizabeth tells me what I need to hear. It’s hard but I have come SO far and it’s all thanks to her. I love her.

Elizabeth is compassionate, caring and intelligent. She is very responsive and keeps in touch between sessions. She also has a good sense of humor which really helps smooth the whole therapy process for me. The only drawback is her popularity - it gets harder every week to book the next appointment, so if you're dealing with something urgent/acute, this might not work for you.

Elizabeth is very transparent and upfront with what she can help with. Her style might not be like your traditional therapist but I really appreciate her honesty and approach.

Elizabeth is wonderful. Initially I got our appointment wrong and I spiraled out of control so I’m sure she witnessed first hand what was going on. The second I met her I felt comfortable. She listened to me, heard me and made me feel I wasn’t alone or crazy in my thoughts. Because of her I can see myself coming out of my divorce stringer and happier

Elizabeth is a wonderful listener and I always feel like she empathizes with me. She not only offers wonderful solutions she guides me through thought processes so that I can deal with negative self talk or stressful situations myself. I recommend Better Help to everyone because of how much Elizabeth has helped me.

Elizabeth got me right away, and gave me tools that really worked for me to get out of my slump. I felt heard and understood by Elizabeth, and I feel better!!

She’s literally the best among all the therapists that I worked with in the past. I looking forward to talk to her every week because she’s been so helpful and supportive. I recommended her to all my friends. I feel so lucky that I have her as my therapist!!!

Elizabeth is kind, thoughtful and a great listener. She has really helped me by providing worksheets, exercises and other resources to help me handle stress and anxiety better. She responds to messages in a timely manner and I am very happy to be working with her.

Elizabeth is a caring, knowledgeable and insightful therapist. She listens to your concerns and offers solid ideas to help you find your path
