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.

Hello, my name is Ben Woo. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in the states of New Hampshire and Vermont. I have worked in residential, community mental health and correctional settings. I am an empathetic, compassionate, self-motivated professional who strives to help individuals reach their full potential. I believe a healthy emotional lifestyle includes learning how to communicate in relationships to increase closeness and social support; it means learning how to believe in your abilities, conquer your fears, and try new things; and it means practicing mind-calming techniques, such as meditation and yoga, and having the courage to heal old wounds while learning how to create your own happiness. I work with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, family relations issues, substance use disorders, and co-occurring disorders. I combine different therapeutic approaches based on client's presenting concerns and goals. I use an integrated approach to counseling tailored to fit the client's needs as they arise. The modalities I use include Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectic Behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Solutions-Focused approach, and Motivational Interviewing. I believe trust in the counseling relationship is the most important vehicle towards self-awareness, change, and reaching your goals. Throughout life we all are faced with challenges. How we overcome these life challenges and experiences help shape us as people. My main goal is to support my clients in both wellness and recovery. I define wellness as having a purpose in life, being actively involved in satisfying work and play, being part of joyful relationships, having a healthy body and living environment and experiencing happiness. I view recovery as a process of change that helps us improve our health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and work to meet our full potential in all area of our lives. I look forward to working with you. Be well. Ben

My name is Dr. Elizabeth Nyang. I have a masters degree in counseling from Seton Hall University and a doctorate degree in counseling psychology from the American School of Professional Psychology. I work with clients (adults and couples) that have issues with mental health, relationships/marriage, and/ life issues. I accept clients with depression, anxiety, problems at work, problems within the marriage/family, mood disorders, and adjustment issues. I use a cognitive behavioral approach, Gottman approach for marriages, and Gestalt techniques integrated with meditation and tai chi to help clients gain insight into the root causes of their problems and/or marriage issues and reduce stress. My communication style is relaxed, honest, caring and factual. When working with clients, I find that they appreciate honesty and my being able to listen with respect and without judgement. My personal acknowledgement that I am not perfect allows me to be able to form a genuine relationship with my clients by accepting them where they are in life. I started using meditation ten years ago and began practicing Tai Chi nine years ago. Today, I integrate meditation and Tai Chi into my therapy sessions. Some of my clients enjoy doing seated tai chi movements during online counseling. Water aerobics is my passion, and I try to take a water aerobics class three times a week. After water aerobics, I enjoy going for a short swim. Exercise is how I add balance to my life. We will work together to help you find ways to resolve issues and add balance to your life. I am looking forward to working with you.

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.
