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

To me, the greatest compliment you can give a therapist is to say that they are a good listener, and Rita LaBrew is a great listener. She hears my my concerns and offers support, understanding and paths to a resolution.

Hi!! I am very new to better help but it has done wonders in such a short amount of time. Rita is amazing, she makes me feel so comfortable to speak freely, always listening to me, making me feel safe and welcomed. i absolutely LOVE her advice, her books/ documentaries and worksheets she recommends me to research. I’ve had 2 sessions with her and she’s better than any other therapist i’ve had in the past. This was by far the best investment i’ve made within myself and i cannot wait to see where this takes me. thank you rita :)

Even before our first session Dr. LaBrew listened to me, and continued to chat with me and help even before I had an initial session. She is very easy to talk to, very professional, Dr. LaBrew has gone above and beyond for me thus far and I’m confident she will continue to. She has a natural passion for this and it shows through her work

I think Rita has been very helpful to me. So many insights I got from talking/texting with her that I wouldn’t have figured out on my own. Would recommend to others
