Help! I am trying to sign up for clinical counseling, but I am being asked to create a BetterHelp (or other providers) account. I am worried I will be charged for these services.
WellConnect has a wide range of options for getting you connected to the appropriate counseling option based on your preferences, location, desired mode of communication, etc. Yes, BetterHelp is but one option. A variety of face-to-face and telehealth options are available. We strongly recommend that you begin your exploration by placing a free, and 100% confidential, phone call into the WellConnect phone line to discuss your needs and preferences prior to engaging in any one option. This will avoid confusion and get you connected to the best option available. Call 866-640-4777
You will never be required to enter payment information while using your 3 or 5 clinical sessions. The optional entry of payment information for BetterHelp is only if you were to opt-in for continued counseling sessions beyond the scope of WellConnect and the free sessions offered by Antioch.edu.
I live outside of the United States/US Territories and I cannot seem to figure out how WellConnect works for me.
The WellConnect program is designed for students located in the United States & US Territories. Students wishing to call from an international location may not access services --- whether they reside outside of the USA, or are traveling for business or pleasure. Please do reach out to the Office of Academic Affairs at auacademicaffairs@antioch.edu if you need assistance with an area of concern and we will endeavor to assist you. Note: If you are temporarily located in the United States for a residency, you may access WellConnect while visiting.
Is there a limit on the number of referrals and resources I can access outside of clinical counseling sessions?
While clinical counseling sessions are limited in number based on your location, per issue, other services are unlimited. For instance, referrals for Local resources, Daily living, Utilities, Housing or Food Insecurity, Childcare, Eldercare, and consultations on finances, coaching, health & wellness are all unlimited. Legal resources are limited to 30-minute sessions, per issue. Call the WellConnect Hotline 24/7/365 for more information about this. Call 866-640-4777
If you have any questions about your WellConnect options and services please call WellConnect directly at 866-640-4777 for individual guidance and information based on your specific need and location. You are encouraged to call this confidential resource.
