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.

Julie has been a life saver and has become a very special person in my life. I struggled alone and really needed someone and she was there. She would check in with me from time to time to see how I was doing if she didn't hear from me. Her care and concern and approach to mental health has helped me immensely. I would recommend Julie to be a safe person to share very personal details with. I never felt judged and she helped me through very sensitive topics. She has been amazing and wonderful.

Overall

I've seen Julie Elliott for a few sessions now. She is calming to speak to and very non-judgmental, which was important to me. I feel like she offers a balanced perspective and gives me space to share my own perspective and experiences. It felt very therapeutic to share my experiences and regrets with someone and feel like she still saw good in me and was supporting me to bridge the gap between how I have been and how I'd like to live.

I’ve been working with Mrs. Elliott since the beginning of the year. I was in a pretty rough spot with a recent loss and a problem controlling my emotions and anger around my family. To be truthful, I’m not too sure I’d still have a family without Julie’s help. She has a nonjudgmental and empathetic approach to counseling. Her insights and guidance have really helped me grow as a person and has improved my relationship with my wife and my daughter. I am very fortunate to have worked with her.

My sessions with Julie helped me greatly in understanding my current state, why I react in a certain way to certain triggers. Julie is very patient, empathetic, listens without judgement and shares her professional insight in a way that's easy to comprehend. She also asks questions about my situation that immediately helped myself and my actions better. The information and worksheets she sent me provided some great and constructive points, directly related to my issues, as well as advice on how to handle them and improve gradually. I would absolutely recommend her services to another person!

I had a great session with Julie. I felt that she asked excellent questions and had really good feedback. She was good at flowing with the conversation, going deeper when I was able to be more vulnerable and keeping a comfortable, real, intellectual conversation when I was more in my head.

S.A.·Feb 24, 2021

Overall

Julie has been beyond excellent. I had my doubts about betterhelp as the first counselor I was paired with didn't seem to engage with me as I was expecting, but after being switched to Julie I now see the potential of this service. Julie has offered a bunch of support through messages, worksheets, and video sessions, and I have felt she has adjusted her methods to suit me in a very comforting and patient manner. I was doubtful I would get much from a counseling service but I have been thankfully been proven incorrect. Thanks Julie!

This has been my first therapy experience and I am really happy that I was matched with Julie. I could tell that she was really paying attention to all of the information I shared with her in our voice sessions and in the chat. She made it easy to schedule appointments and always responded promptly. In just a month's time she was able to share with me a lot of info and advice pertinent to my situation and tools to help me going forward.
