Therapy with Raquel Partners with BetterHelp.com

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a national pandemic.  To ensure the safety of the public, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommended that health care providers begin taking steps to provide services remotely in order to help slow the spread of COVID-19. 

This recommendation was quickly adopted and later enforced by many county and city districts, including through out Riverside County and the greater Palm Springs area. Interestingly enough, despite the quarantine orders a lot more people were contacting me in need of services for their mental health. 

In the midst of an international pandemic, I realized that there were a lot more people out there who could benefit from my support and I began brainstorming on more ways that I could help. 

 I turned my practice into online counseling  and I joined BetterHelp.com. 
​(Don't worry current clients, I still offer on site and in office support.)

In May of 2020 I partnered with BetterHelp.com to provide  online counseling and therapy services to people throughout California. I also offer services on their affiliate sites including TeenCounseling and Regain.

I am grateful for the opportunity to support our community through web and internet based psychotherapy services, and partnering with an organization who’s mission is to promote mental health and wellness. 

BetterHelp is an interactive service where I am able to create an authentic connection with my clients and build a strong therapeutic relationship. One of the best features about BetterHelp.com is their attention to customer satisfaction. As a treatment provider,  my clients are able to leave reviews and rate their experience with me which helps me develop a treatment plan that meets their needs.  When I work with my clients I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental place where my clients can be themselves and feel heard. Your therapeutic experience is important to me!
