Hi, I'm Penny Scott-Handries, voice actor for the No Sleep Podcast.

Sometimes it's not us that need help, but the people around us.

You may have a friend or loved one who's struggling and doesn't know where to turn.

Being able to help those close to us is great, but sometimes we're just not qualified

to provide what they need.

In those circumstances, it's great to know places you can direct them if they're looking

for help.

It's important not to pressure people, of course.

They have to want the help.

But if someone comes to you for advice, they're knowing where to direct them can really

benefit them.

That's where services like Better Help come in.

If you or someone you care about needs someone to talk to, or just to listen, they're a great

option.

Better help will assess your needs, and match you with your own licensed professional

therapist.

You can start communicating in under 24 hours.

It's not a crisis line.

It's not self-help.

It is professional counselling done securely online.

There is a broad range of expertise and Better Helps counsellor network, which may not

be locally available in many areas.
