Teen Counseling for Positive User Reviews
✓ Most understanding person I have met.I have always had counselors who make me feel like a lesser person or that i feel don’t understand what I’m going through or are just doing this as tedious work. But the counselor I matched with is so understanding and is really easy to get along with and open up to stuff about. It is especially easy to build that trust through the text feature before you have an appointment although it might feel like your talking to a bot sometimes They just want to be professional..Version: 9.6
✓ Good, not quite greatThe therapy itself is good and it’s already helped a lot after only two sessions! The app itself could use some tweaking though. It takes a very long time for verification codes to come through, usually around 1-2 minutes after the timer ends. I sometimes find the direct chat between myself and my therapist glitching out. It might just be me, but I have a hard time trying to reschedule, the option confuses me a bit. It’s also only been three sessions, I’m sure I’ll figure it out eventually. Just little things, still a huge help!!.Version: 12.11
✓ A world of goodMy daughter and I both struggle with anxiety and I must say that we both are benefitting from the counseling that she is receiving.Version: 9.6
✓ Teen counselingAn amazing platform to reach out to for help.Version: 12.3
✓ A month in and still goingI called many, many counselors in our home city but none had an interest in helping my queer child work through a break from fundamental religion. As a last-ditch attempt at finding help, I tried teen counseling. It’s been fantastic! I wish this had been my first stop. It took a week for my child to get the hang of it and learn to communicate effectively. The counselor was wonderful helping us navigate my child finding their voice. My child is doing so much better and it’s relieving to see my 15-year-old come back to life..Version: 9.9
✓ GoodThe therapists are really helpful..Version: 12.3
✓ Perfect for our family-easy to navigateI thought the pricing was great- we definitely couldn’t get in person counseling for what we paid for this app. My daughters counselor responded quickly to texts and asked great questions. I highly recommend for help with anxiety in your teen. everyone is different and sometimes you have to try a few counselors. Therapy is a process and not a quick fix and you are paying for highly trained professionals..Version: 9.6
✓ Teen Counseling via Better HelpI am beyond thrilled that we found the Teen Counseling resource via my adult use of BetterHelp, especially since online has become so necessary!! This is my teen daughter’s third therapist, and her favorite by far. She has direct access, confidentiality, and flexibility not to have to meet in-person (even though she benefits from in-person when possible). And, it’s immensely affordable compared to other experiences, without losing any of the expertise and professionalism. There are 7k+ therapist to chose from, and their intake assessment helped us to narrow that down easily. Fortunately, the first recommendation fit!.Version: 9.9

✓ It’s greatSo far I’ve liked it a lot! Haven’t done a lot, but so far it’s been good.Version: 13.6.7
✓ VnukonExcellent !.Version: 9.9
✓ AwesomeAwesome.Version: 9.9
✓ Great for teens-needs different frequency optionsThis has worked amazing for our child. The therapist is great to work with and truly cares. App is easy to use and convenient. The only reason for 4 stars is that there is only one frequency and payment option (weekly meets paid in monthly fee). Our mental health should not be a financial worry-but let’s be honest-it does impact it and has to be a consideration for the majority of individuals. There are situations where once a month or twice a month would have a huge impact on a teen’s life and/or may be all that is needed and at a reasonable price it would be more easy for parents to commit to. After the first month my child wanted to do once a month which her therapist agreed to. They do have an option to apply for financial aid-but many parents would assume they would not qualify and it would hinder them for considering that option. Our doctor recommended this platform and I will provide the same feedback. Thank you to the company for making a difference in my child’s life! Please look into making more reasonable frequency and payment plans available to families that don’t try this because of the current plan. I promise you this is a deterrent for some (we consider led not doing) and making this change will help you make a difference for many more teens. Thanks!!.Version: 12.18
✓ JoleenWonderful help and lovely woman.Version: 10.0
✓ Very usefulI’m 17 and finally bit the bullet and got myself therapy. my therapist is a really chill and down to earth lady, and when filling out your application the app asks for your gender/pronouns. you can schedule a live chat, phone call or video call for a live session. otherwise you’re available to text your therapist whenever the need arises and they reply whenever they’re able. very useful and nice. the app also has an in built journal that you can share with your therapist or keep it private. your therapist and app also makes sure you’re aware of your rights and your states laws, and when your therapist is required to relay information…. All in all, this is an excellent app with excellent people!!! definitely worth a shot if you’re looking for help..Version: 12.7
✓ GoodGreat.Version: 9.9
✓ Great serviceWe are a digital nomad family, so having our teen in face to face counseling isn’t an option. This has been so great! Also, the app is very user friendly, and I’ve had no issues with it. I like that my teen can have a private chat with their counselor, I can have a private chat, or we could do a group chat if needed. If you need a video counseling service for you teen, I’d definitely recommend this!.Version: 12.3
✓ Online SUCCESSI was nervous about using an online counseling service for my son. I was very nervous about having a random person whom I knew nothing about. But, with our super busy schedule, I decided to give it a try. Needless to say, it’s been nothing less than INCREDIBLE! My son’s counselor is so personable and professional. When my son has his sessions, he does them in his room where he is comfortable and it’s his safe zone. I highly recommend this service to teens with busy schedules! ❤️.Version: 12.5
✓ Responsive to a rocky startWe set up counseling for our daughter who is a teen. The first therapist we were assigned was less than professional. Without going into too much detail, she was not what we expected in terms of professional appearance on the video call. Additionally, she ultimately ended up vaping in front of our 14yo daughter while on the call. Not a good look for someone I am trying to prop up as an influencer for my child. So I messaged Teen Counseling on a Saturday not expecting to get a response until the next business day. To my surprise, they were extremely responsive and immediately took our profile out of the automated assignment portal and hand selected a new counselor for us within about an hour of my initial message. We are now working with a new person who is equally responsive and inquisitive about our situation. She has done a great job of gaining background knowledge ahead of our session this week..Version: 10.0
✓ Very helpfulReally helped my 18 year old during a break up with his girlfriend..Version: 12.12
✓ LeeI think the cost is too expensive , on the contrary the advice is very good.Version: 9.9
✓ Very Helpful!My 14 year old son has been dealing with tons of anxiety, negative thoughts and low self esteem. After hitting a low point, he agreed to try counseling through this app. He was extremely nervous beforehand, but after our first session, he was very happy! Our counselor was VERY helpful and gave some fantastic advice, and my son is looking forward to the next session already! A side note— I was worried about how a video session would be effective (versus an in person session). It went REALLY well! Our counselor was very personable and made my son feel comfortable. It was actually nice for him to be able to do it from the comfort of his own room. Plus there is the option to email messages in between sessions, which I think my son will actually utilize if needed. I highly recommend this app! VERY impressed!!.Version: 11.4
✓ Easy to access psychotherapy when you need itThe price is reasonable, combining messages and video calls is efficient, the psychotherapist for my family is very professional..Version: 12.9
✓ A weekly reliefI look forward to my counseling appointment every week, and I know that may sound incredibly lame, but it genuinely has been such an enormous help to me. Just having someone objective that I know I can trust to unload my brain to, without feeling bad, makes me feel secure and put together. Truthfully, you have to do the work with your own mind, but to have someone consistently who knows what you are going through is a major help in the healing process, because sometimes you just need help to lift your heavy feelings off your shoulders. I recommend counseling to anyone who might be struggling because even if it doesn’t provide an immediate cure to whatever issues you’re experiencing, it invites you to look inside yourself and discover how powerful your own really mind is, and discover the immediate strength you gain when you realize that YOU are the one in control of your own mind. I wish you all peace, health, and happiness, good luck!.Version: 9.9
✓ I recommendSo far it’s really helped me through a lot of things ! My therapist is so nice and supportive. The app not only had online therapy sessions and chat rooms but it also has a journal which comes in handy when I need to write about my feelings or my therapeutic gives me “homework”. Overall I love this app and I recommend it if you’re thinking about getting into the therapy but don’t want to go to live sessions..Version: 12.12
✓ Going GreatSo far it’s been going good. It’s been helping me a lot even if I have only had it for a few weeks!.Version: 12.11
✓ Fantastic Support for my son!It has been a godsend for my son. The format and wonderful support he has gotten has been worth its weight in gold. Particularly during the landscape of Covid and with mental health issues exacerbated by the paradigm shift in teens’ (and everyone’s) daily lives. I am very grateful for the help he has received and continues to. Therapy sessions are fruitful and engaging, the option to message and respond through the app are great, and communication from the parent side of the fence has been great as well. Highly recommend it..Version: 9.7
✓ Immensely helpfulThis app has been great for my kid. Their counsellor is helpful and mindful of what teens specifically need. It’s been wonderful.Version: 12.12
✓ Got itIt helps.Version: 9.6
✓ Nice!Really great app, helped me massively so far. Easy to use and run. Therapist has been amazing as well.Version: 13.4
✓ Easy to use and schedule.My teen and I have been using the app for a few months now and I have to say it couldn’t be much easier to use. We found a psychiatrist in just a few days but my kid felt they weren’t a “good match” for the kind of help they were looking for so we tried again. A day later we had our match. Scheduling appointments is super straightforward and easy. Communication is just like texting, so you can’t get much easier..Version: 12.18
✓ It’s a therapy appIt’s a quality app. Many, many licensed therapists are available, you have the opportunity to explore and find one that suits your personal needs. I think most people that give it a 1 star review are forgetting that this is a service that offers REAL therapy.. (which is known to be somewhat costly.) parental consent is also needed for obvious reasons, everyone registered is a minor. If you’re looking for a service where mental health professionals are willing to listen and help for FREE... good luck.Version: 12.3
✓ Great helpful service for teensI started teen counseling a few years ago when I started high-school, and it has helped SO much. The best thing about it is there is no awkwardness. The counselors understand they are talking to teenagers who are going through a lot, and treat you as such. And if you find someone who is not as helpful as you wished, its easy and free to switch to another counselor. There are worksheets they will give you to help you reflect on yourself outside of the lesson, which can just be a good reminder of what you talked about each session and you’re putting full thought into each worksheet. It’s very helpful, no matter what you’re going through, and there are so many people who can help you with the specific issues you have, whether it be suicide.. depression.. anxiety.. you name it..Version: 12.18
✓ Thank youCounseling has to turned out to be a god send to our family. Our counselor has be very understanding.Version: 9.9
✓ Very helpful!It’s really nice to have somebody trusted to talk to about anything and I’m able to message my therapist at anytime which is helpful..Version: 12.12
✓ Fast and easyAlthough it took longer than the 48 hour window to get connected with a therapist, once I was it was quick to get together with them. The app made it very easy to have a live chat session and the messaging feature is super helpful when you need to connect at a moment’ notice. It’s a perfect option for my teenage daughter when she needs to reach out to someone any time of the day..Version: 12.3
✓ SO THANKFUL FOR THIS APPI’ve never written a review before but it frustrates me that there are so many bad reviews on this! I have been using this since October of 2018 - about 7 months ago. At that time, there was a LOT of bad controversy about better help after Shane dawson was sponsored by them. This made me skeptical, but I felt inclined to at least try it for myself anyways after watching a video with a in depth good review on it. I was in the worst mindset I had ever been when I began consoling. The lady I got paired with was a perfect match right away. She’s quite responsive and I feel there’s a mutual trust. Before this I was terrified to do therapy young because my sister had a terrible experience at a nearby center. I couldn’t be more happy to do therapy online. I genuinely look forward to my sessions. She helped get me out of a really bad place..Version: 7.1
✓ So helpful!This has been a God send for my daughter. I’m so glad we found it..Version: 9.6
✓ I like itA good outlet.Version: 12.5
✓ FriendlyFamily driven and very helpful councillors.Version: 9.7
✓ Do itLife changing! Way better than any other counsellor/counselling experience I’ve ever had.Version: 8.1
✓ Find a Perfect Therapist Match! This App Makes It Easy!This app is easy to use from communicating, scheduling, and meeting with your therapist. You can meet via phone or video making access to mental health as easy as it can be! Teen Counseling matches you with a therapist based on your needs. And if you find the match isn’t perfect they will find another fit. If you need to talk with someone for only a few sessions or on an on going regular basis, I highly recommend Teen Counseling!.Version: 10.0
✓ Very helpfulGreat service 😊.Version: 13.1
✓ Little talking goes a Long wayGoing to therapy with people face-to-face is full of anxiety and worry. As well as having to pay more and try to find the right therapist for me. But my doctor told me about this app (teen counseling) I felt a little bit skittish about it. I had to tell a little about myself. But their question did make me feel at all uncomfortable. As soon as I finished they gave me a few people. I try it. Within the first day I became very comfortable with my therapist. I’m right now in my daily sessions. Already I see a difference within myself. I love the apps very much and highly recommend to anyone to try it out..Version: 11.7
✓ Terrific and affordable resourceThis has been very helpful for my teenage daughter. I have such a feeling of relief that she has mental health care. She looks forward to her appointments and has made a lot of progress. Even though she’s feeling much better, I’m keeping her going with this as I think it’s so important for her to be in the habit of sharing her emotions, getting assistance with her anxiety, and continuing to do the hard work of caring for her own mental health..Version: 12.3
✓ Very helpfulIt’s quite calming and you can get the help you need and they are very polite and helpful.Version: 13.1
✓ PeterPeters.Version: 12.18
✓ Best decisionI enrolled my daughter for teen counseling to address her anxiety and depression. I’ve reached out to several local therapists but struggled to find a competent therapist I trusted that had experience with teens. I read other reviews and decided to give Teen Counseling through the Better Help app a try and it was the best decision. We were paired with an excellent therapist who has been working with teens for over 20 years. Not only does she provide a safe and open space to talk but is also super solution focused. Her suggestions have proven to be very helpful. She is also available to message in between therapy sessions. As a parent learning about teen depression and anxiety, it’s so valuable and reassuring to be able to message the therapist any time with questions and updates. This is an incredible app and highly recommended!!.Version: 10.0
✓ ExperienceAmazing amazing amazing, Laura Burns was the best therapist I’ve ever had. I’m am the type of person who doesn’t enjoy these type of things and can’t see how one can help because your not in my shoes you don’t know me, but this time around was different I have so many strengths I wish I had been more open to instead of letting my inner thoughts cloud my mind. Since starting this journey I’ve had so many skills that I can apply to myself and others and realization tactics. All I can say is I’m so much more happy and comfortable with what has happened and where I am today thank you Laura Burns and may we meet again..Version: 11.7
✓ Personalised & easy to useReally impressed with the online app; our counsellor has been fantastic; easy to approach & responds with details to messages. Very helpful &insightful. The app is very easy to use & has been a life saver during Covid. Thank you.Version: 9.9
✓ Good AppEasy to use from mobile..Version: 12.12
✓ Good counselors, but the app itself could use a UI updateApp is a little outdated and kind of hard to use. but the counselor i have is amazing i love her.Version: 9.6
✓ I am so grateful!!I have a teen who has been having some problems with depression. I had no idea how bad it was. After starting Teen counseling and talking to his counselor, my son started being more open to me about what was going on. I took him to the doctor to see about antidepressants and he confessed everything about the deep depressive moods, the cutting, the suicidal thoughts. My heart broke. But I know if it had not been for teen counseling, I might have found out too late!! Thank you sooo very much!!!.Version: 9.6
✓ Private and convenient for my teenAttending therapy online is so convenient for my teenage daughter struggling with anxiety and ADHD. I don’t have to worry about her missing school for an appointment like we did when she would visit therapists in their office. Also, I would have to work around their schedule, which was never convenient. Online therapy is private and no one sees you going into a doctors office with “Behavioral Therapy” in huge, bold letters on the door in a very popular shopping center. Yes, where we live, the doctors put their office in busy areas for marketing, but don’t think about their clients’ privacy. No teen wants to visit a therapist next door to a popular chain restaurant..Version: 12.18
✓ Great appSupper useful. A lot more personal then I thought it would be.Version: 12.12
✓ I think it's great - especially during quarantineThis was a great option when we couldn't get out to see a therapist face to face. No problems with billing. It was a little confusing to get the sessions started, but that's to be expected anytime starting something new. Had to learn exactly how it all worked. I was a little concerned about cost, but filled out a quick financial application and was approved for a somewhat reduced cost. I felt it was worth it, considering teens already have some trouble coping with their changing feelings/bodies/whatever, AND being stuck in quarantine just made a lot of these issues surface in an uncomfortable way. Very helpful service..Version: 9.6
✓ Flexible, quick & confidentialBeen receiving services for one month now I love the flexibility to work around our schedule the convenience of being able to do it from home having a younger person which my child feels they are able to connect with better and the professionalism shown by the therapist. I also love as a parent how I can communicate with the therapist privately aside from my child and my child has that same outlet on a regular basis that she can reach out knowing that the therapist will respond when convenient to their schedule. I recommend anybody to give this a try as our children are worth it..Version: 10.0
✓ Very HelpfulTook a few tries to find the right counsellor for us, but it has been great so far. With covid making things difficult, everybody seems to have a long wait list. We got on and matched quickly. Being able to reach out and have a session any time is great. The flexibility helps us address our issues in real time..Version: 9.9
✓ AmazingAmazing.Version: 9.9
✓ Teen counseling a good match!For all those parents out there struggling with their adolescents, or struggling to get them to a counselor due to busy lives, Teen Counseling is definitely one avenue I would highly recommend pursuing. It’s been very impactful on my daughter thus far, and the responsiveness I receive as a parent from my daughter’s online counselor is excellent. I have already noticed a change in my daughter’s depression level after only a few weeks using this site, one that I hadn’t seen with the traditional counseling setting in the last year. Recommended!.Version: 8.1
✓ Teen CounselTeen counsel is a terrific source for available therapists and social workers that have been very helpful with assisting our teenage son with his anxiety challenges. The tool is a great app to work between both the child and social worker and provides interactive functionality that allows for the parents to be apart of the process and progress of our child’s recovery..Version: 9.9
✓ Easy to UseI am a recently widowed man. My kids are also going through the trauma of losing their mom. I am having a very difficult time driving them to private school and back every day, in addition to my job. This online app has really helped my kid talk to a counselor in a another she is used to, while getting the help she needs during this really tough time. Without this app, she probably would not be able to talk to anyone. I just cannot provider my kids and take that much time off for regular weekly appointments..Version: 13.4
✓ 👌🏻👌🏻.Version: 9.7
✓ Great app designIn a world where basically everyone goes to therapy now, it’s been impossible to find someone in our area for my teen to see. They either don’t see teens or they have a wait list. Teen counseling may not be the best choice if your teen struggles with meeting online, but my son has been doing very well with the counselor he was matched with. The first therapist was a good fit in every way except matching up our schedules. So we had to try someone else. The switch was seamless and quick. I recommend this option for anyone who can’t find a good therapist to see in person..Version: 13.1
✓ Absolutely amazingJust one call and I feel better than ever I want to do things I have never been able to do.Version: 12.10
✓ GoodSo it’s not free (obviously) but it is helpful. It is just like having a therapist, but perfect for those with extreme anxiety that would prefer to just type out their thoughts to a qualified professional. The therapist I was assigned even checks in throughout the week (something you don’t get with other services). The survey at the beginning pairs you with someone who they think you would do well with, but if you two don’t click there is the option to change. <-Super thoughtful idea. I have been able to really see where my brain is stabbing me in the back with this app 😂. I hope if you’re looking at reviews then you try this app, because truthfully if you didn’t want help you wouldn’t have scrolled through the reviews ;).Version: 9.1
✓ There when you need itIt’s been such a great place for my daughter to go when she is feeling overwhelmed. I live that you can ask for help anytime..Version: 9.9
✓ Very pleasedI have seen great improvement in my daughters attitude and how she feels. After loosing her dad at a young age we have been struggling with dealing with grief and my daughter has been very depressed and unhappy. After communicating with therapist named Lauren my daughter has been more communicative and happier. She is handling things much better and is using the coping skills given to her. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone with a struggling teen. It’s great that they can do therapy from anywhere on their or tablet where they feel most comfortable..Version: 9.3
✓ 👍🏼👍🏼This app is really expensive but if you are needing help it’s definitely helpful.Version: 12.10
✓ Works for my teen!This platform has been life saving for my family. I am grateful for the therapist work and appreciative of the customer service, always quick to respond for anything from all my questions to good solutions. Although I understand not all teens are open for receiving support in this way, for those that give it a chance, the amazing and caring real people behind it are life changing..Version: 12.11
✓ Invaluable, especially In these hard timesOne of my children has been struggling for the past couple of years. We were finally able to convince them to go to counseling. Of course by this time Covid hit and counselors in our area we’re not excepting new clients. Thanks to this app, the counselor the app set us up with as well as my child’s hard work, they have been working through there anxiety, depression and self-harm. It has been a little over a month and we have already seen great improvement in my child’s behavior, and attitude. I cannot support this App enough..Version: 9.9
✓ Great Therapy OptionTeen Counseling has been a really good option for our family. It was such a relief to get a quick response and an appointment with a therapist relatively quickly. The first therapist we were connected with was a great match for our needs. I like that my 17-year-old is responsible for setting and keeping their appointments, and trusts that the sessions are confidential. In my personal opinion, I feel like there is a piece missing, not being face to face, but my child seems to be much more comfortable communicating this way. Overall, great value and care..Version: 12.12
✓ Modern day counselingLove it, love it, love it. Traditional methods did nothing for my 16 year old who has had anxiety and bouts of depression for 6 years. We didn’t think we would ever find anyone that she could feel at ease with, enough to actually participate. I found this company and my daughter has been showing improvement and she actually does it on her own. The texting is how she communicates with everyone, so this is perfect. When in a crisis, she uses it a few times a day, and less if life is a bit easier, no worries. Our counselor is so awesome and takes the time to really listen and give sound advice in today’s world, with today’s s problems. This has been a life changer..Version: 8.0
✓ Different in a Great WayI’ve never done online counseling before. Didn’t know what I’d think of it. But my counselor has been so kind and sweet and always there to chat if I needed them. Even if we didn’t talk for a bit, they’d always check in on me which I really appreciate. It wasn’t just one-sided, either. They got to know me and asked me what I care about, and made me feel cared for by making themself relatable to me. Would definitely recommend this app and my counselor to others!.Version: 8.1
✓ You can find your perfect fitIt only took a couple times for me to find a counselor I really connected with, which is really nice. You don’t really get that sort of thing with live therapists around your location, because there are like thousands on this app, and you can choose your preferences and find someone perfect to talk to. Before choosing one you can also read about what specific things they specialize in, to find what you need. Talking to my therapist on here is something I can look forward to during the week..Version: 9.6
✓ So far so goodThe app is good and I have no issues contacting the therapist, booking sessions etc..Version: 12.12
✓ Very goodVery helpful when I talked with my therapist for the first time we were able to identify issues and find easy manageable solutions that have made things a lot better for me. They were very kind and supportive and helpful. The app was user friendly but you should definitely take the time to explore as there are a lot of resources. And I love that there’s an option to chat with your therapist whenever you need during any moment of the day..Version: 13.7.1
✓ Wonderful, helpful experienceMy 16 year old son was going through an angsty time, showing some aggression towards other kids, acting out and got in trouble with the police. The first thing I did was call a therapist for help, and stumbled across Teen Counseling. This is going to sound like a paid for add, but it really did seem easy. After you tick off the issues you’re concerned about, and describe your situation, you are matched with a therapist. My son was a bit resistant at first but knew he needed some help so he agreed to do it. His description to his friend of the therapist was something like, “He looks like a teacher, kind of nerdy, but he’s really cool to talk to.”, and followed that up with referring his friend to the same guy! I think that says a lot! So suffice it to say that I’m really pleased with the experience. I can see a difference with my son already and it’s only been a month..Version: 8.1
