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.

It is a gem to find a therapist that is filled with biblical discernment, the skill to challenge one’s perception and tie it to scripture, and the compassion to try and just be there to help. This is Dr. Sanchez and what he does for me.

Dr. Sanchez is a great listener and meets you where you are at. He brings a wealth of knowledge as well as an understanding of my situations. He asks great questions to get me to focus on the root of the problem but also provides great insight and actionable next steps.

Overall

Dr. Sanchez is the first provider in over a decade of seeking mental health treatment who actually seemed to understand what I was going through. I have no idea where I'd be without his assistance.

Feb 04, 2023

Overall

I am really appreciative of my sessions with Dr. Sanchez. He has helped improve my mental health tremendously. He has a way of providing "tough love" that is not judgmental; I was able to apply his lessons and improve in a positive way. He is a great mirror that allows me to rethink my thoughts/feelings from a different perspective, diminishing my self-limiting beliefs. He has given me "homework" which has benefited my growth. Dr. Sanchez has provided me with invaluable support on my mental health improvement journey.

Mar 13, 2023

Overall

I have a long history of doubt and avoidance of mental health treatment. I spent many years distrusting therapists and never getting any real treatment. Dr. Sanchez was the first to really make me feel that he was looking out for me. I tried to doubt him at first but it's blatantly obvious that he genuinely enjoys helping others and it really shows in his work. I look forward to our sessions because I have never gone a session without learning something valuable. Recommend 10/10.

Dr. Sanchez worked with me during a very uncomfortable time in my life. Work, social life, and more we’re putting me in a great deal of anxiousness daily. In situations unhealthy. But he helped me find a path to work through some of these thought patterns. I’m very grateful to him.

Amazing! I've been struggling with myself for a long time now, not really knowing what was wrong. Dr. Sanchez figured it out in under 30 minutes. I may have been simple to diagnose but my life has only gone up since our first session, and I will definitely be going back.

Dr. Sanchez has been absolutely amazing. I'm a combat Veteran and being paired up with him has been life changing as he is a combat Veteran as well. Having someone who understands military life, and combat environments and combat related injuries is key for me in my mental health journey.

Sr. Sanchez comes across as a real person not just a clinical therapist who’s trying to analyze my thoughts. He gives me real life advice and counsel me on how to deal with my issues in a personal manner and yet keeps it professional.

Overall

Hmm. What to say here?! Dr. Elliot Sanches is fantastic. I have been in therapy for years. Some of those years have been enjoyable, with great practitioners and other years less so. Dr. Elliot is a no nonsense type of practitioner. For me, that is very welcomed. Due to my nature of past therapy along with my years in recovery, I have an expansive vocabulary to describe situations, all the while not saying anything of substance. I immensely appreciated his position, his questions and his feedback. I understand his journey is shifting for a moment and wish him safety and security. I very much look forward to continuing my journey with him up on his return.

M.A.·May 04, 2022

I have been going to therapy for years, but it seems like no one really every listened or cared enough of my concerns until I met Dr. Sanchez

Overall

Within a month, not only my life, but my world point of view was changed. At first I was reluctant, but... In the end, no regrets. I can't thank my friend enough for pushing me to try, can't thank Betterhelp enough for starting this, and can't thank Dr.Elliot Sanchez enough for helping me find my wings. Y'all may not get it now, but once you get him and grow with him, you will. Again, than you all, and many blessings and love to you all. Happy growing.
