She is the best Therapist ! I look forward to my session each week! She has in a few short weeks made me realize my boundaries & the way I see myself. I just love her & would highly recommend her if you been in a narcissistic relationship or been abused in the relationship!

Amanda is an asset to the BetterHelp community. She is one of the most genuine people I have met. She is knowledgeable and tailors her sessions to target areas of growth. Amanda offers information on researched based interventions to give patients the appropriate coping skills needed in daily functioning. It has been an absolute joy learning from Amanda, and I know there is much more to go!

Great to talk to

I mean I have tried so many things & this is literally the only helpful professional I’ve ever had in the past decade+. I could not be more thankful, pleased, excited, grateful, & more for the opportunity to use this resource & it work perfectly for me, so that I can hopefully have it for as long as I need it! I could not praise or recommend it enough to anyone who needs even the slightest bit of help if they’re struggling b/c I was about at the end of options & my mind & personally, my therapist & then overall experience as well has been more than I could of dreamt of or asked for & I would recommend it & do it a million times over & hope to be here for a long time, so that I can say I put the work in & I’m ridiculously grateful of the help I receive. Idk if everyone gets as “lucky” w/ their therapist, but it’s basically as much as the price of a “therapist” w/ my insurance & this is SO MUCH BETTER, helpful, & conducive to literally bettering my mental health than anything I’ve tried or been given in the past decade or two.
