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

Darla is an amazing therapist. She is very helpful and kind.

I am beyond thankful for the work we did together. Having the support, encouragement, and voice of Darla Roundtree engaged my courage. Therapy is hard and the right therapist makes it worth every minute. I am so thankful she showed up with me everyday! Thank you!!!

She has been really great for me so far and I look forward to the growth and progress I will continue to make with her

Darla tells me the hard things I don’t wanna hear, but that I need to hear.

Darla is a very good listener and I appreciate her counseling sessions. I am thankful for her patience and understanding of cultural diversity and for her heart felt counseling with a positive spiritual based background.

Darla is very intouch with the inner voice we need to hear

Darla is such a lovely lady. I love the daily affirmations she sends me and the thoughtfulness of her checking in with me on days I don't have a session. It makes me feel thought about when I see her name pop up everyday.

After leaving an emotionally abusive relationship, I knew I was ready to heal the part of my that stuck around and endured the mistreatment. I signed up for Betterhelp and have worked with Darla weekly for 3 months and I can say her reflective listening and insight have changed the way I show up in the world. I feel deep peace finally understanding myself better and why I have made the decisions that led me where I am today. If you are considering therapy, I highly recommend this woman! She has supported me to change how I feel in my life, for the betterment of self and others :)

She is awesome and helps you see problem areas and helps me walk through it

Darla had been insightful, encouraging of kindness and compassion and education, realistic and relatable, and incredibly refeltive with certain issues that I might miss in myself. I'm a work in progress that is feeling more progress than work.

Darla is an amazing therapist! She is very knowledgeable and empathetic and I would highly recommend her to anyone

Although I’ve only had one session with Darla, I feel comfortable speaking with her.

Mrs.Darla is very attentive to my needs, as well great practices I can put into my everyday life!! I’m so very grateful for her knowledge, and understanding!! I can’t thank her enough of how, she helped me understand and validate my feelings!!

Wonderful and insightful therapist. Vet good at understanding me and helping me find my way through my concerns.

Amazing

Darla Roundtree is Amazing!!! I never knew that talking with her, I'd be able to target healing in an amazing way. She has a very beautiful way about getting topics onto the surface and really healing them. I'm fairley new and I can already say that I look forward to the rest of my healing Journey. Thank you so much!!! The best decision I've ever made (:

I feel seen and heard by Darla and I love the way she puts me at ease and challenges my thinking. Appreciate her so much!!

She is a perfect match for me!! Very knowledgeable about my experiences!! Thank you much!

I am very happy that I matched with Darla. Fromt the very first day she listened and understood where I was coming and could see things I didn't know yet. I would definitely recommend her to anyone

She’s great! She’s very good at listening and talking to you, you’re not just having a conversation with yourself. Xxx

So far, Darla has been a good therapist. We don’t talk daily - but I think we talk weekly. I like that she’s virtual because I am an online student. I’d recommend Darla and any other therapist from BetterHelp! I am suffering from Major Depression.

Darla is incredibly empathetic and wise. My situation is uniquely challenging and she is getting through it with me. I really appreciate having her.

After the first session I really felt heard and seen by Darla. She made me feel like the struggles I have are normal and that there are things I can work on to overcome them. Very positive and supportive. Great listener. Kind.

Great listener, doesn’t muzzle me or put me down. Has a Great Way wording things so I understand better

Darla has helped me completely turn my life around. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Darla has been great!

Darla is awesome. She’s genuine, patient, understanding and she challenges my thoughts to help me overcome my struggles. The best therapist I’ve had. Much growth in the few weeks I’ve scheduled with her.

At this time, I have only had one session with Darla. However, she made me feel comfortable and provided a safe space for me to expression my feelings and release my emotions. Darla displayed compassion and concern when meeting with me. I am looking forward to more sessions with her.

Darla Roundtree provides excellent support through multiple channels and works with people with a busy scheduled like mine. I feel that I am in good care during our sessions and she goes above and beyond by providing exercises and "homework" that I can work on my own time. These are super helpful for me and they again work great with a busy schedule.

Darla has been a blessing to work with. She listens well, engages, and has a knack for providing new and insightful perspectives. From our first session I instantly felt like she was picking up on who I was without me even providing much information. She has really helped me to understand some of the “why” behind why I feel, say, and do certain things, which has been very helpful.

Honestly, my time with Darla has been incredibly beneficial. I feel so much lighter just being able to get things off my chest and she has provided resources that help me put what I’m feeling into words!

Darla has been super helpful thus far. From the first session, she has helped me realize many things I wasn’t aware of within myself. I am thankful to have her!

Darla is supportive and empathic. She sends me affirmations and exercises to do in my own time that that have challenged yet really resonated with me on my journey. I look forward to our sessions together and would 100% recommend her!

Working with Darla has been life changing. She's helping me to understand how intergenerational trauma is impacting my personal and professional life, and how I can reframe my thoughts to better benefit me. I'm so thankful to have the opportunity to work with her.

Good counselor. She challenges you making you probe deeper about why you feel, think, and articulate yourself the way you do. Expressing yourself and being heard will not go without the probing, challenging questions. I like her positive affirmations. I like the tools she provides as aids to counseling.

I adore Darla! She is wonderful to talk to and work with. She is very professional and inspiring. I look forward to our meetings every week. She’s keeps the magical healing spark of therapy alive and meaningful in my life.

Darla is absolutely amazing at what she does. I have never been in the care of anyone more insightful and caring!

I am a seasoned clinician that was seeking counsel on my relationship issues and I have found Darla to be most refreshing and professional in her approach. I highly recommend her to anyone. She has insight, patience, empathy!

I came to therapy dealing with some difficult life transitions, and I cannot stress enough how helpful, supportive, and professional my therapist was. She has a talent for getting to the heart of the matter every time, and her advice got me over one of the most difficult hurdles of my life. She is very skilled and knowledgeable, and I am so very grateful.

I am enjoying my time with Darla each week. As a woman of color, she does a great job connecting to my overall needs and concerns, which is greatly appreciated during this time.

Darla is the best therapist I’ve ever had. My sessions with her are always wonderfully empowering. She encourages me to actively practice how to process my emotions on my own and has given me so much wonderful advice that truly works.

Darla is extremely insightful and a great listener. She provides resources when needed and wonderful daily affirmations. I highly recommend Darla. She is kind and has taught me a lot.

Mrs. Darla gets to the root of the problem I feel. She is really nice and listens to what I'm expressing. I think if anyone new comes here, that they should get Mrs. Darla.

My counselor Darla has been exceptional. From day one she provided me with comfort that I was in a safe place to talk about myself and my concerns. She’s always uplifting and never fails to tell me when I’m making progress.

Working with Darla so far has been amazing. She's calm, she listens, and she instantly helps me reframe all of my positive thoughts. We're only a few sessions in, but I look forward to continuing work with her.

Jevon Vinson here. Darla Roundtree is amazing. She understands and I’m a person who feels like people don’t. I’ve felt alone and sad and somehow she’s bringing out the best in me daily. I appreciate her.

Darla is a thoughtful, kind and compassion therapist.
