they ask you to produce an account …Betterhelp Commercial 2018 Actress…and after that you set up your payment choices i’ll discuss this a bit more later but there are scholarships that can lower the price and after that you can likewise alter your choice on how often
you wish to pay so if you pay weekly that’s the most expensive but you can likewise pay ahead of time which will make the expense less expensive for you overall and after that based upon your answers to your concerns in the previously discussed survey they will match you with a therapist i’m going to use the words therapist and therapist interchangeably throughout this video however that’s not necessarily the case and i believe that much better help offers both kinds of mental health specialists so simply keep that in mind once they match you with your counselor you’re able to speak with them and you can set up a time to have your first main conference so it can either be through a video call through a regular phone call or through a chat or instant message i always do video calls but it is excellent to understand that all four options three really to me however they say it’s four are available and i understand that’s definitely helpful for some people who are maybe a bit more worried about therapy or not interested in doing a video call because it makes them uncomfortable when the day of your session comes you can either log into the internet browser or log in to the mobile app you can’t do both at the same time only one at a time and then you wait on your therapist to join and they will link you to the session when they do a little bell ring and after that you’re ready to go and you can start having your your meeting throughout your first session you’re probably going to have just a be familiar with you kind of session to find out why are you interested in treatment what things do you wish to address what are your preferences as somebody attending therapy what are your therapists preferences and what’s their design of therapy all of those things will probably get hashed out in the very first meeting and then with time you’ll get more comfy with one another and you’ll have more of those like much deeper
sessions where you can talk about your problems and whatever it is that you want to deal with and then as time goes on you’ll have sessions however you paid for it or nevertheless you set it up with your therapist so with my therapist in particular i believe this does differ by therapist but we do weekly sessions for one hour and i pay 35 dollars a week broken down but i have spent for all of my sessions in advance to get that cheaper rate so let’s carry on to the pros and the cons of the platform i believe among the greatest pros of better aid is that it is an online counseling service and that makes it extremely convenient and extremely available for many people as long as you have a web connection you can pick a variety of different ways to consult with your counselor so you can do text video calls or call they send you pointers about your consultation so it’s quite hard to forget when you have a time established they send you both email suggestions and text tips and they send them to you a couple of days ahead and likewise a couple of hours ahead and a few minutes ahead so it’s a bit overkill but uh certainly reliable and another cool feature of them having a digital platform is that they provide digital group sessions and webinar kind of sessions that are available to any person who utilizes betterhelp totally free of charge it’s at no additional cost to what you currently spend for your weekly sessions with your therapist now that being stated in my viewpoint the app and the platform is not excellent in fact it type of draws specifically considering that much better help in and of itself is a tool the item that they’re selling is this video platform that therapists can utilize to link you to their network i indicate i guess they’re selling the network but i believe truly what they’re selling is the tool and it’s not a great one it’s pretty clunky there are no options for screen sharing Betterhelp Commercial 2018 Actress
or messaging or talking throughout a session photos are shared very strangely they’re shared as files and you can only send them individually so you can’t like drag and drop into a window or something you need to like browse select the photo then put it in and then the person can’t see a sneak peek of the picture they need to click into the file to see it it’s simply extremely out-of-date small things like when you push enter in the chat window your messages don’t send it really creates a line break so
