Better Help Online Therapy ... Is It Worth It?
มุมมอง 3.8K4 ปีที่แล้ว
This is my honest opinion from someone who has started therapy abroad. I'm curious to see what everyones thoughts are on online therapy? Personally, I've been almost two months in and I'm finding my sessions to be productive. I vibe well with my therapist. The only frustrating part that could turn into a bigger issue is the fact that the sessions are So. Damn. Short! However for those living ab...

ALONE IN SOUTH KOREA | 5 TIPS TO STAY SAFE
Lol..Korea ain't nothing in terms of being unsafe.... go to brazil.. go to mexico.. go to any place in africa.. go to columbia.. go to france... then cry about korea...
Thank you 😊
I don't trust anything online. Most of what you read or see online is a scam, fake, total BS, or a combination of the three.
Great job! In my experience as a licensed professional counselor, 30 minute sessions work as a brief check in when you're doing really well, but that's not anywhere long enough for meaningful work unless you're working with a very skilled hypnotherapist. At the clinic I work at full time, most of my sessions (unless I'm called in for a brief consult with a patient seeing another medical provider) last 45-50 minutes, and up to 75 minutes when I'm doing a couple, a family or using a translator. In my private practice, my sessions routinely last at least an hour to 75 minutes for individuals, and 80-90 minutes (and sometimes longer) for couples and families. I'm considering signing up as a BH counselor to fill some open slots in my private practice schedule, and it's helpful to hear your experience. Thanks for sharing this, and best of luck to you.
I just realized my black jeans are too big now so I’m glad I found this video ☺️ hopefully I can find something
Thank you for making this review
Can you choose someone with migration background or experience?
Ah thats a great question but I'm not sure. My advice would be to contact Better Help support as they have all the information in regards to the counselors on the site and their background/area of expertise.
@@moderndayafronaut ok thank you very much!
Do you know if you can choose languages the counseler should speak, like spanish?
I believe you can put that option in when you sign up, check their website to make sure though
@@natashawilliams289 ok thank you very much!
There are too many online websites. How you can trust them. Who is running them. I personally don't recommend any online services, unless it is provided by a well known and credible health center. Other than that how do you know about the quality of that website services. It is better not to take it.
Hi Soora! Yes I definitely agree with you and feel that everyone should always do their due diligence when it comes to mental health services online. However, for some people where location and money is an issue (such as myself) the online route can be very beneficial. Different strokes for different folks!
How about dating in a country that got raped off by racist cockney penile colony land grabbers from England that have been racist to many other groups of humans for years.. but I here you sister Oh yh.. don't forget Melbourne was named by the English from the Melbourne in England
Hi! New to your channel. I just wanted to ask (if it's alright) - Did you apply to GEPIK with or without teaching experience, a teaching degree etc?
Hi Emma! Thanks for joining! I applied via a recruiter (Korvia) and through them I entered Korea via GEPIK. I didn't do any of the orientation stuff. I had teaching experience however not in the traditional since. I didn't have a teaching degree either... I got my TEFL certification. Hope this helps and feel free to drop any other questions 😌
Hi. I feel you! Btw do you know where to buy plussize dress in Seoul? (Dress for attending wedding) thank you before
i was scared to go to korea because of clothes not fitting me but know i feel ok about it im not exactly plis size but i do have huge ass feet
Yeah its still online ordering only for those of us in the big foot sisterhood haha!
Are you teaching English?
Yes I am! 😊
I am getting ready to go to Seoul and this video helped me a lot because I want to shop but I'm very curvy and was worried about not finding anything that would fit🥺
Hey I’m looking for schools to work for, is yours hiring?
Lol unfortunately they aren't 😔
My fear was that i wouldn't be able to find anything to wear if i go shopping in korea thank you for this!
I guess Im randomly asking but does anybody know a method to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
And when the person has preference what is it? i prefer black or asian men this is a preference! I wouldn't be comfortable dating a white man!
Here's the reality: many, many people have signed up for the free trial and were charged before it ended or despite cancelling near the end. Then it took a long time to get a refund, if they ever got it, as their customer service is unresponsive as well. This is among the top complaints, besides no-show/cancelled appointments and canned answers via text. No one should sign up for it unless they can afford to be charged without their knowledge.
Damn this is unfortunate and very different from what I have been experiencing so far with Better Help. I have been hearing that it is a mixed bag and know some people who haven't had the greatest experience. Personally, I would like to experience therapy in a different way outside of the Better Help platform but I so far for me I have been happy with my current counselor. I can say that it has been a game changer for me. I plan to do an update video soon about how I feel about it. It's definitely not for everyone as therapy looks different for everyone.
@@moderndayafronaut Hi, I'm glad you're having a good experience; there are many dedicated counsellors there as well. Underpaid, but regardless. The issue with this company is that some people get no service whatsoever, while paying for it. It's a hit or miss, like playing on a slot machine. And given that we're talking about mental health here, people can't really afford to waste time and money on an unreliable service.
@@moderndayafronaut can you update us?
There's nothing wrong with standards looking like a better looking version of the locals. Same all over the world
Thanks for posting sis ✊🏾
Thank you so much.
thank you so much
I will definitely be taking my channel seriously this year. Thank you for this, I will definetly be answering these questions since people back at home want to know more about Korea.
Hey beautiful what are you doing down there?
You and You mom is so cute!!! <3 <3 Beautiful love
OKTB recently just closed. I mostly shop online though since being here in Korea because it really is stressful to travel to another city to find clothes in store.There's a whole demographic that SK are missing out on when it comes to on trend plus size fashion. And 'free size' ain't been my friend since I got here last year - lol Will for sure check out Lady Plus the next time I'm in Seoul though! And Market A looks nice too! Thanks for the tips.
Osaka looks so nice! Definitely have to visit on my next Japan trip :)
Yeah super chill city and sooo many bikes!
I have an idea girls with an Asian fetish should date Asian men who fetishize their ethnicity 😂 Maybe they will Lear something this way 🙃
lol right? 😂
So much fun!!! 🥰🥰 I'm ready for the party deck 🤘🤘🤘
Thank u for everything!! 💕💕
Omg your shoes are 11! Me too! I thought it would be impossible to find my size!! Could you consider doing a shoe related video???
Yessssss love your outfits
Dope tips!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
💯 Nice one, going to subscribe. Did you know about FollowSM . c o m?! Most channels are using it to promote their videos.
Dope vids... keep grinding ....saw your Australia vids
Thank you... appreciate that!
Great video ! I just listened to your podcast this weekend and their pretty good. I really liked the friendships one, it made me think and reflect. And your "welcome guest" singing made me chuckle 😂 Keep up the great work !!
Awww thank you for the kind words and encouragement!!
I love those cute clothes of korean but the size is my problem... thanks for making this. So I cant find any even cute jackets or shirts at Goto Mall?
Omg this is exactly the video i was looking for 😭 where is the store located? i'll be going to korea sometime this month and would love to drop by!
Great that you're putting the podcast on TH-cam now as well ! 😀 40 hours... Too much for me. 😅
Okurrrr! You poppin! Love this look from the eyes to the thighs! shoes too hehehe
Lol... thank you!!
First, I like you; your vibe, honesty and support of other women (of colour). Secondly, thank you for the video and I love your channel. You are look beautiful.
Wow!! Thank you so much for your comment. Its really a great motivation boost to keep doing what I love!
Jeans girl. Are any of these good enough to buy like a 44inch hip jeans from? Or are we just doomed? With major ass.
So far I have yet to find any proper jeans or pants from Korean brands for the big booty judy's living here myself included! I've heard of a brand called Chuu that has really great jeans but the largest so far seems to accommodate a size US 10 or 12? I know that certain brands such as Romi Story and J Evellet have larger size pants but they are still cut to fit a Korean body. That means most of the pants (the ones I've tried) fit very weird in the crotch and do not have any room or give for wide hips and big booties. For now the search continues.
Romi Story also has a flagship store in Hongdae: 23, Wausan-ro 17-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Best station to get off at is Sangsu Exit 1, Line 6. Check it out! Great store with both standard and plus size options :)
👋🏾 great video hun and thanks for the shout out 💓😍🥺😭💜
I've been super interested in korean fashion and it's always been hard to try and find clothes online that match the style and also fit lol, so this is helpful! That velvet hoodie is EVERYTHING, I love the color! I'm hoping to try out and do a jstyle evellet haul in the future. Not sure if you've heard of it before, but if you or anyone else that happens to be reading the comments is interested in buying kfashion clothes, they do have a much better size range than others I've found!
Yes! I have heard of Jstyle and I have yet to try something from them but I definitely want to!
For Men they have ?
I haven't seen that much when it comes to Men's Plus size in Korea but I do know they carry big size for men I think in particular websites. Sorry I don't have much more information about that, but I'll definitely check it out!
Any places near sejong university?
Hi , I really like to dating black woman but unfortunately I have not meet any black women. 0413 617 345
LOL...
Literally visiting Seoul right now (from Australia) and trying to shop is so overwhelming when you're plus size. Definitely going to check out some of these places while I'm here. Thanks so much for the resource!
