These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Andrea Maxwell. 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.
I always thought BetterHelp was too good to be true, but this platform, and especially Andrea, have exceeded my needs and expectations. Andrea is by far the best therapist I have ever had. She is a great listener and validates my feelings. Her welcoming, lighthearted demeanor make me very comfortable. I feel as though I am chatting with a friend. I appreciate her availabilty for live sessions and her responsiveness with messages. It’s also nice to have someone who understands living in Michigan, as many of my stressors are environmental. Thank you for everything, Andrea!
