As you can understand for me Better Help Ad Animation . and that’s why i started utilizing it and i strongly advise that you obtain their financial aid because they do apply a pretty good discount rate and for me when i used i was paying about 108 dollars when i was a student versus 135 dollars when i wasn’t a student any longer however this was a professional due to the fact that it was far more affordable than in-person therapy for me even using insurance and i think the con would be that better help does not accept health insurance a minimum of at the time of this recording so when you initially sign up you go through a series of questions about demographics and other concerns like are you spiritual are you spiritual what are you attempting to leave treatment things like that and after you respond to these questions and you’re registered you’re matched with a therapist that sort of goes along with the responses that you responded to the pro is that it’s truly
easy to be matched with a counselor but the con is that the therapist can be a hit or miss after going through some research study and evaluates on my own i read that a lot of individuals really get pretty crappy therapists that don’t either listen to them or they’re not as responsive as they must be and with my own experience my very first therapist was like that but also had a lot of issues like sympathizing with me and listening to me so if you ever face a situation like this you do not need to describe yourself you can simply strike switch counselor or whatever it is change counselor and choose from their list of available therapists when i was first beginning therapy a lot of people were informing me that you require at least a month before you actually understand if the relationship is great prior to moving on however i ‘d state the minute that you feel like something’s off that you’re not being listened to or heard you dip out like you leave immediately okay perhaps not like that minute i’m simply stating that you don’t need an entire month to see if someone’s the ideal fit for you you have to trust yourself and know that if you feel like something is off trust your gut betterhelp markets that there’s live chat there’s phone sessions video sessions and you can also message your therapist in between sessions which is excellent due to the fact that they’re allowing for much easier access to your therapist depending upon what your needs are the con is that not all therapists use all modes of communication and my very first therapist actually just used chat sessions and phone sessions and when i actually emailed betterhelp to complain they stated hello we’re so sorry but it’s at the discretion of the therapist to have these modes of interaction and due to personal reasons i ended up switching over to another counselor anyhow who did provide almost

interaction the sessions had to do with thirty minutes and if i felt like there was a lot more to speak about i always asked my therapist if i might extend my time for an hour into book sessions you simply need to bring up the calendar and select the days and times that work best for you and if there aren’t any days that work for you then you can collaborate that with your therapist i personally choose the video sessions due to the fact that i seem like talking face to face is constantly super handy for me however honestly there are numerous days where i just do not wish to talk to someone so i was able to still book a live chat session instead of skipping out entirely on treatment which i truly appreciated among the cons in my viewpoint would be that if you have a sought-after therapist which held true with the second therapist that i saw sessions were constantly just scheduled out two to three
weeks at a time and he was truthfully the best therapist i have actually ever seen like personally and through online therapy so i wanted to wait that time for him this next con would be an individual experience of mine that my therapist when he did appear would in some cases appear like 10 or 15 minutes late without any caution without messaging me to let me understand that he was gon na be late so that simply annoyed me a bit so there’s a tab for journaling and the journal entries are all blank they actually have actually triggered entries now which you can also shuffle through if you want to use those rather and you might select to share those journal entries with your therapist or just leave them be and keep them private and for the group in ours i truly simulated the subjects that they had them on i simply hated that they were always set up during the work day that i wasn’t able to go to and it’s an embarassment due to the fact that i feel like i would have gotten a lot more out of the better health experience if those groupon hours were scheduled at easier times so you men are most likely believing like oh you were seeing the very best therapist you have actually ever seen why would you leave the app well this is a story for you all right so my therapist ended up leaving the platform without saying goodbye [Laughter] it was so bad like i was with him almost an entire year and a half and he simply dipped out and it was because of health factors which i totally understand but that resembles a break up y’ all like like i was spilling my body and soul out to this person and he simply left um but then i was just like alright you know what i’ll simply give another therapist an opportunity so i matched with another therapist and she no showed on me a couple times and at that point i was much like you understand what this i’m done i’m done this is adding on more distress for me so i think i’m just gon na let it go and possibly attempt another app which i probably will and review that one too in the future now i ‘d also like to state that i discovered the privacy issues regarding better help after i quit the platform and actually quick
if you do not know what i’m speaking about there’s controversy going around that better help is mining your information and sharing it with other apps like facebook and snapchat for marketing functions this is all consisted of in their privacy policy and you might read about it utilizing the link that i’m going to put in the screen right here in my opinion despite the fact that the controversy is like incredibly messed up i think that if you know this going on and you kind of simply don’t care and you require the help i think that better help is an excellent option for you and i’m saying this due to the fact that i found the very best therapist i have actually ever had on the app and i think that having apps like betterhelp this is opening up an entire new world and providing more access to individuals who would not otherwise get help and go to therapy if i missed anything in this video or if you had a various experience for me go ahead and comment down below due to the fact that i think that it will be actually valuable for other individuals to become aware of your experience and i ‘d be curious too like what did you go through did you go through the exact same things that i did if you found this video helpful don’t forget to provide it a huge thumbs up down below and if you’re new here don’t forget to strike the subscribe button to Better Help Ad Animation…
