So I want to talk to you all a little bit about one of our new sponsors, BetterHelp. I'm so excited to tell you about this online counseling platform because as a licensed therapist, I'm a huge advocate of mental health awareness and truly believe in providing affordable counseling services to anyone anywhere. Let's face it, there's so many areas in the United

0:55.8

States and around the world that can make it so difficult to find affordable counseling.

1:01.0

And especially if you live in a more rural area, it can be really hard to find a counselor,

1:05.5

which is why I love this online platform. BetterHelp is an online mental health healing platform that provides online

1:11.8

counseling and matches you with your own licensed professional therapist. It's not a crisis

1:16.6

line. It's not self-help. It's a professional counseling service done securely online and is

1:22.8

available worldwide. What's even better is that there are a number of different licensed counselors who

specialize in all different areas of mental health. BetterHelp makes it so easy to log on to your

1:34.1

account at any time and contact your therapist directly. You'll get timely and thoughtful

responses and can schedule as many weekly video or phone sessions as you would like. As a therapist,

first time. So BetterHelp has actually made it so easy to facilitate great therapeutic matches.

1:55.6

And if you don't find a connection with your first counselor, there's absolutely no charge
