If you are exploring Better Help, it is likely that you are struggling with something significant in your life. Deciding to seek therapy is a brave and powerful first step! Finding a counselor/coach/mentor with whom you connect is very important to your success and satisfaction. Below please find some information about me to help you decide if my experience and style might be the right match for you.
I am an Indiana Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have many years’ experience providing therapy to clients from a variety of backgrounds. Much of my experience has been supporting people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and relationship challenges, including parenting concerns.
The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be friendly, warm, caring, and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest and direct with them. I believe in the power of acceptance, hope, connection, and support to provide an environment where growth and insight can occur. I always use a client-centered approach. Depending upon the person, I may also use other methods, such as distress tolerance, emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, relationship enhancement, existential therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy. My purpose is to work collaboratively to meet the needs and goals of each person. My hope is that I am able to help all my clients find ways to live with meaning, joy, and satisfaction.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for M. Elaine Peck. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She listens to everything I say and message, so when we speak I really feel like she understands me.
