Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Kim. 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 Kim is very easy to talk to and was great with focusing on the more important parts of my life and situation. I have trouble focusing and staying on topic, but she kept me on topic without making me feel incompetent. I look forward to our future sessions together.

Amanda has been extremely helpful to me since I began seeing her seven months ago. I have had therapists in the past and Amanda has been the most effective for me. I find our sessions very helpful with timely advice. Our communication between sessions is effective, as well. The video platform is also quite effective for me.

Real professional. Five stars

Written on Jan 09, 2024 after therapy with Amanda for 10 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, self esteem, and career difficulties

Dr Amanda Kim has been not only professional but extremely easy to talk to for somebody that has not done therapy and very anxious about therapy. She made the process very easy to go through.
