Alysha is my saving grace, I’m not sure where I would be without her. I joke that not seeing her for a few months was the worst break up of my life. Finding someone who sees you and truly sees you is hard. Alysha makes me feel like I actually matter.

I came to Better Help four months ago and in working with Alysha on a weekly basis, we have made major progress on the resolution of my childhood traumas. Alysha is a kind person who listens thoughtfully, asks pertinent questions, and offers understandable explanations when asked. I've had other helpful therapists but none quite as helpful as Alysha, and I highly recommend her and Better Help. Thank you Alysha for your compassionate expert guidance!

Early days yet but been a helpful experience so far and look forward to experiencing it more. Appreciate that I will have good and bad days but it's how I recover from the bad days that matters so it doesn't affect me as much as it has in the past

Alysha has been a great counselor to work with. I feel that we share a lot in common (moms raising children) which makes explaining where I am coming from easy and comfortable, and she has a calm, humble, trusting nature which I appreciate. She carries with her much knowledge and professionalism, and has a way of weaving in great tools and techniques within each session, which I also appreciate!

Alysha is a wonderful, patient and keen listener. She surprises me and teaches me more about myself and how to cope. There are some vastly important things about myself that I have never known or realized until I started working on myself with Alysha. I feel confident that slowly and surely, we will be able to work together to sort out my past and manage my mental health.

Alysha is positive and constructive. She is able to let me talk but also gracefully cut in when she needs to share an insight or guide me through a process. She is considerate and non-threatening with credibility and expertise.
