About Me
Hi! My name is Russell or Rusty, whichever you prefer. My approach is casual, but also rooted in science. Like an astronaut might say they “always knew they wanted to be an astronaut”, I’ve always known I wanted to be a therapist. I’ve studied the more interesting psychological treatment approaches, like humanistic theory, motivational and mindfulness based approaches, but graduated from a rigorous Psychology program rooted in the science of Cognitive Behavioral Theory. My Master's degree is a Master’s of Science in Social Work.
I believe that there’s a framework that fits everyone and every problem, but that good outcomes are rooted in a good therapeutic rapport as well as an approach that actually works. Let’s let your challenges guide our treatment approach, I’m here to listen and help you solve!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Russell Price. 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.
Russell Price is easy to connect with and goes out of his way to understand me and my unique concerns. He lets me control what I need to work on while also helping guide areas I need to address
Very thorough and honest. Cares about you getting a positive outcome in session. You should definitely talk to him if you need help.
I really like working with Russell. He has really helped me with my anxiety.
An amazing help for any situation ! He is understanding and very Intelligent
Thank you russell for your help. You were nice and understanding and helped me through hard times
Russell makes me feel heard & adapts very well to my needs. Definitely a keeper
Being my first time speaking to a therapist, I find Russell very easy to talk to and I have confidence in him.
I am a queer, polyamorous, sex-positive, kinky, cis-woman and Russell has provided a safe space and judgment-free atmosphere for my experiences and traumas. He talks to me like a friend as well as a therapist. He accepts sexual diversity, differing desires and relationships structures, and individual choices based on consent. He has affirmed my sexuality without making it the sole focus of my treatment. I have only been seeing him for a month to deal with some situation grief and I already feel some relief. I am able to message him occasionally when things get challenging between sessions and he responds back with both helpful and thoughtful words. I look forward to diving into some more topics and setting some future goals.
I have been very impressed with Russell. He is a very warm and caring practitioner and very professional. He keeps on task in attending to the reasons I sought help. I had not realized that a response from the journal writing was part of this program, but each time I post a journal entry I receive a thoughtful, helpful note back from Russell with suggestions. I think Russell is an excellent therapist and at the end of my 4 sessions, if I require ongoing help, I would definitely ask for him again.
