These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Chavez. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Amanda is a great therapist. I was initially paired with a therapist that I couldn't really relate to and felt very disconnected from, but Amanda is the complete opposite. She knows her shit and gives great new perspectives on issues that might seem big, but that in reality just need a simple reframe. Excited to continue my journey in this world with Amanda <3

She’s great, she relates, she listens, and she provides guidance.
