Good Morning,

I hope you are having a pretty good day today. I'm glad you are reaching out and looking for support; that can sometimes be the most challenging part, so give yourself credit for that.  

With BetterHelp, you would meet with your counselor for a 45 min live session weekly (via chat, phone, or video). You can also journal and share with your therapist for feedback and message them in your private message center throughout the week. The people who utilize the tools provided usually get the most out of their time.

Regarding your insurance covering BetterHelp, you would have to check with your specific provider and see if they could provide out-of-network reimbursement. However, as far as I know, BetterHelp does not work with insurance providers. You may use any FSA or HSA funds to cover the costs. Many employers and schools offer it as a part of their tuition or EAP program, so I would check with either of those if applicable. You may also be able to get a trial run of Betterhelp, though, to offset the costs for a few weeks while you can figure out financials.

Meanwhile, I would encourage you to remain consistent in your daily exercise routines and eat energy-rich foods to keep your brain energized. Using things like journalling or mindfulness and meditation can also help you engage with your thoughts and feelings and begin to think through them until you find the correct modality of therapy that works for you. If you have been in treatment before, pulling out some of the tools you have learned to sustain you until you can find the proper fight may be helpful. Overall, I encourage you to move forward with signing up with BetterHelp if you can. You will find that with Betterhelp, you will have your weekly talk therapy and access to your therapist via private messaging during the week if you need to talk things out. Good luck and all the best on your journey.
