Therapy benefits available to Farm Bureau members

From the comfort of your home to the busy days in the tractor seat, we are providing this extra member benefit to improve the lives of our members. Through this benefit, members will be able to receive one free month of counseling to use in 2023. If you need more than a month, you will be able to continue for 15% off your monthly BetterHelp sessions. Through the first month, you will be able to get unlimited access to messaging with your counselor and weekly phone/video sessions. The BetterHelp system partners you up with a counselor who meets your needs by taking a short assessment. If your counselor isn’t the right fit for you, then you can switch counselors at any time for no cost and without any questions. 

You should be receiving an email from BetterHelp inviting you to access the service, including a unique link for you to create an account.

Below are some FAQs about this new benefit. Feel free to reach out to the county Farm Bureau office for further clarifications at any time. Your information will be kept confidential and safe with our team.
