Seeking support from a therapist can help you overcome your mental health struggles. If you’re looking for a licensed therapist in New Hampshire, consider online treatment. While there may be independent practices of counseling associates or community mental health centers in some places, it can be challenging to find an available in-person appointment, and transportation can be an issue if you live in a rural area. An online platform like BetterHelp can make access to mental health care more flexible and convenient. 

BetterHelp provides treatment to individual adults from the comfort of their homes at a time that works for their busy schedules. This flexibility makes treatment more accessible, especially for young adults in college, busy professionals, and working parents. Many providers are available on the platform, including psychologists, social workers, and marriage and family therapists. Your provider will work with you to determine your unique goals and what treatment approach may work to help you meet them.

Although BetterHelp does not currently offer treatment for children, like play therapy, group therapy, or family counseling, providers are skilled in various treatment modalities, including commitment therapy, art therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. 

If you’re looking for an online therapist, NH has many telehealth services available. The list below features professionals who are licensed to provide online treatment across the state of New Hampshire.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some commonly asked questions can be found below.

How much does a therapist cost?

Mental health professionals can differ in price. Forbes found that the average cost of in-person therapy in the US is around $100 to $200 per hour. Pricing can also vary based on your location. 

BetterHelp offers payment plans of $60 to $90 per session, charged monthly in a lump sum. You can also take advantage of this pricing on one of BetterHelp's sister platforms, like ReGain for couples or TeenCounseling for teens aged 13 to 19.

Many therapists may be upfront about their pricing and whether or not they take health insurance from the beginning. Additionally, some in your area may offer a sliding scale plan to allow those with lower incomes to pay less for therapy. However, services online can often save individuals a few hundred dollars per month.

How do I know if I should get a therapist?

Mental health services and mental health providers may help you navigate various concerns. You do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy; You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general advice. A counselor may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Mental health issues don't always present as a crisis. Many professionals provide talk therapy and support for life transitions, skills learning, relationship problems, or life coaching. Online therapy sessions in New Hampshire can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.

Does insurance cover therapy?

Different counseling services can vary in cost. Therapists must apply to accept insurance through insurance companies, which may take time and money, so not every therapist offers services through insurance. If you cannot find a therapist that accepts your plan, BetterHelp may be cheaper than visiting an in-person therapist.

Is online therapy safe?

Online therapy through BetterHelp and its sister platforms is safe. Therapists are licensed, experienced, and vetted before being contracted with the platform. If you experience any concerns with your therapist, you change your counselor through the platform or app at any time.
