ReGain vs BetterHelp
They differ on 2 of 10 things we check. No winner here: the better one is the one that fits what you need and how you'd pay.
ReGain
You sign up alone or with your partner, get matched with a licensed therapist, and have one live session a week by video or phone, with messaging in between.
BetterHelp
You fill in a questionnaire, get matched with a licensed therapist, and meet by video, phone or live chat, with messaging in between.

The same for both: kind of help (a therapist), probably not for (anyone in crisis: call or text 988), cost ($70–$100/week, billed weekly or every 4 weeks), how you pay (i'll pay myself), where (iphone, android, web), privacy (grade d), sells your data (yes), hipaa (yes).
In crisis or thinking about suicide? In the US, call or text 988. This page is information from our reviews, not medical advice.
