Dani has been instrumental in reminding me of the importance of living my best life. She's given me the space and time to deal with a lot of change. She's provided me with a wealth of encouragement, accountability, and unabashed freedom to navigate life with grace and respect. Most importantly, Dani makes me feel like her most important client. She's focused, determined, and always aware of my needs. Having BetterHelp, and specifically Dani, has placed me onto a much happier trajectory in life. For that, I am eternally grateful.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a 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.

11 outta 10. Thank you!
She and I vibe so well and so it has been easy to open up about what I have gone through and she makes me feel understood!
I absolutely love talking to Dani. She validates my concerns and feelings (and reminds me that I need to feel my feelings) while holding me accountable for the goals I make. Dani as completely shifted my previous ideas of what therapy is - I had no idea I would laugh way more than I cry. Our sessions are like the best girl talks you have with your bff, but her advice isn't clouded by any personal opinions or emotions.
Dani has been so helpful and fun to talk to so far. I was skeptical at first but enjoy talking to her.
Dani is a consumate professional who is tirelessly dedicated to her patients. Dani meets you where you are, without judgment, and gives you a safe place to grow. In 1 month, Dani has helped me improve the way I communicate and taught me that I can give my self permission to be happy. When I talk, I not only feel heard; I feel like what im saying is valued. What a powerful thing.
