Call to Sister Better than “BetterHelp”
BILLINGS, MT - Lisa Thompson, a local woman, stumbled upon a novel idea: talking to her sibling might beat splurging on “BetterHelp.” The app, known for pricey therapy sessions, now faces an unexpected rival—family ties.
Thompson, a self-improvement seeker, had been sold on BetterHelp. But after a frustrating chat with her counselor, she speed-dialed her sister.
To her surprise, her sibling listened sans clock and offered genuine advice. It seemed sibling rivalry birthed wisdom.
“I realized spilling to sis beats a screen stranger,” Thompson said, her eyes sparkling. “She’s free therapy!”
As news spread, BetterHelp execs pondered survival tactics. Some argued for professional expertise. But Thompson insisted family bonds trump Freudian fluff.
As psychologists debated, siblings celebrated. “Sis’s calls always had a point!” said Sarah Thompson, Lisa’s sister. “Now, I’ll charge her double!”
Whether Thompson’s breakthrough shakes the therapy world or just adds to self-help oddities remains to be seen. But remember, next time you’re low, before you tap that therapy app, give your sibling a buzz. Family ties: the best therapy you can’t swipe for.
