Betterview Counseling and Trauma Recovery is teaming up with RHS to make student experiences #better

Betterview is excited to team up with Reading School District to provide quality mental health treatment to students in Reading High School.

Many times students suffer quietly from anxiety, depression, home conflicts, social interaction problems, bullying, low self-esteem, PTSD, and other mental health disorders that impede their ability to perform in the academic setting.

Betterview makes it easy to access mental health services with multiple ways to sign up.  A student or parent wanting mental health counseling can do so directly on this website, contacting a therapist or with the school guidance counselor;

Betterview often can see clients as soon as the next day (schedule permitting).  We pride ourselves on providing fast and high-quality mental health treatment.

Let's start working together!

Most individuals are their biggest critic. Negative thought patterns became a habit, and eventually turn into a lifestyle. Life continues to have unexpected challenges and we are tasked to handle these while continuing to play all our other daily roles.
