A great company to work with.

Our therapist/counselor, Linda is great. Extremely helpful, knowledgeable and honest. She tells us what we need to hear, not what we want to hear and in my opinion, that's the first step to regaining a healthy and long lasting relationship

They are scams

They are scams. They charged for $1680 without service. They never call us back and for a refund. I am going to take a legal action.

Thank you for reaching out Julie, and we do apologize for any confusion or concern caused.

Regain is a legitimate online therapy platform providing support to our members and their partners. To clarify, as a membership based service, any active account will continue to charge, unless cancelled.

It sounds like this may have been unknown to you and we are always happy to look into situations like this further. That said, I see you are currently working with our Member Success Team to provide the solution you'd most prefer.

We look forward to resolving this very shortly!

Sincerely,
Regain Team

Regain is helping me through the pain of divorce

This is my second time with Regain as going through divorce and wanted some advice from a woman about all the emotions I am trying to make sense of. My current counsellor has valuable personal experiences that is helping me get things into perspective and I look forward to continuing to work with her. very pleased with the service.

My therapist is terrific!

I reached out last year to inquire about therapy and was contacted by a counselor. I decided not to pursue it at the time, but inquired again this year and was contacted by the same therapist who remembered me from last year. She is really awesome, I love her style of therapy, making us do the work! So far it has been an awesome experience.

I strongly encourage any new or established couple to take a few couples therapy sessions! It’s a safe place you can talk about parenting styles, how you each handle stress, and other critical information about one another to handle the stresses the world will undoubtedly send your way. I’m now a firm believer and highly recommend Althea at Regain\Better Help! The app is easy to use and extremely convenient. I truly appreciate the helpful guidance and cannot thank your company and in particular our therapist enough!!!🥰

Excellent service

Connecting with a professional and excellent therapist is simple and very accessible, due to its online nature. I've been using it for the last couple of months and it's absolutely worth the money and time spent. Highly recommend Regain!

good therapy and great courses

I found the therapy session helpful, the therapist was caring and understanding. I also found the free online courses offered by betterhelp very helpful. I could register for all the courses that interested me and watch the replay at my free time.

I’m so happy that such services like Regain are there and I can connect with wonderful therapists located in the other part of the world. I am grateful to my therapist Roshanna Bracy to show me how I can build a healthy attachment with my son. I was slowly loosing the connection with him without realising it. I am also grateful to my therapist to show me the way how I can create a better relationship with my husband and improve my marriage.

Website does not work and awful customer service

Really awful costumer service with no help whats-over.
More stress on the relationship because there is no support to fix the website problems.

Firstly my partner cannot join the website despite clicking the link he has been sent multiple times - the counsellor says they don't support the technical issues, I need to email.

I've emailed about 5-10 times and even rang the US (from UK) to sort and was promised both times someone would call me back.

I've asked the therapist multiple times to help me sort it and they responded by booking the sessions online at times that don't work for me.

I'm now £200 down - cannot get a refund and zero response from anyone at Better Help of Regain Us. It's been 8 weeks.

Really awful costumer service with no internet in solving your problem. You’re automatically forced through Webseite to pay already for my month even though you arent sure if you’re going to take these therapy sessions. I’ve problem with finding a German speaker coach as I wished and afterwards I’ve just found a good local consultant near my home and 2 days after my site registration I’ve requested frequently for a refund and guess what, they don’t answer any of my emails till now nearly 3 weeks ! Rude service

Hi Shokofeh,

Apologies for any confusion, as I see our team has replied to both of the emails you've sent us within just a few hours of receiving them. It sounds like you may be having issues receiving these to your primary inbox (they may be ending up in SPAM), so I'll send another follow-up to you shortly to make sure this gets resolved.

Thank you,

This is really bad

This is really bad, why would your force people to subscribe for a service without them being aware? It’s enough they are trying to resolve issues. Taking advantage of them is wrong and criminal. I will be making a formal complaint to the UK government so your website gets banned in UK. I will also be calling my bank to make the payment gets reversed. I paid for one service, you have to no right to charge my card twice. Theif!

We are sorry to hear you were not aware of the automatic renewal of your active account and understand why this would cause you concern.

While we do outline how and when you will be charged during the registration process, on our FAQ page and list your next billing date inside your account settings, we want to help however we can here.

I am going to request the email address associated with your BetterHelp account, through a TrustPilot form you will receive shortly, so we can speak further.

Talk soon,

As I am prevented from responding to your reply on my original review, I will take the opportunity to get back to you here.

You did not reply to any of my emails. I have been checking my spam folder as I didn't want to miss your response, in the hope that this would be resolved.

I suggest that you don't try and imply that you responded to my emails again, and actually look to rectify the situation.

I highly recommend NOT using this platform!
Our therapist couldn't even get the session started on our first session, but I was still charged for it. Our second and only session was completely useless. There was zero structure and nothing was accomplished. We both stated very clearly that we did not want another session scheduled, but our therapist secretly scheduled another session without notifying us, and I was charged for it. The therapist is still trying to schedule sessions without our consent. This is a rip-off.

Update: Regain again charged my credit card despite me contacting customer service, leaving clear instructions in their portal not to schedule any further sessions, and Regain even responding to this review pretending they would help. This is a nightmare. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS!

Great therapist matching + counseling insights for a great price

My therapist was selected based off of my specific requests. I did have to ask for a different therapist before starting but they were super quick and helpful with it and matched me with the perfect therapist for my husband and I. She is teaching us how to communicate as a neurodiverse couple since I have both adhd and high functioning autism which causes a lot of misunderstandings. She is also well versed in a specific key dynamic that heavily impacted our marriage. She is very attentive and listens and observes our interactions without interrupting which helped her pinpoint the underlying root cause of our conflicts that we only saw on surface levels. This just might save our marriage that is on the verge of divorce due to irreconcilable differences despite our love over 15yrs. The messaging is also super helpful so we can share with our therapist issues that aspire between sessions and she can review and make the most out of our sessions. It is well worth the money and I would definitely recommend this therapy platform!

Will use this again

My partner and I had a great experience with Jameson for our pre-wedding therapy. He was attentive, and skillful in his guidance and helped us discover a lot about ourselves. We'll be using Regain again, and can't recommend them enough.
