These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Andrea Mcphatter. 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.

Andrea is the perfect mix of familiarity and professionalism. I feel she has a gift for making you feel heard and seen and helps me use that for self reflection. I have discovered things that I never really investigated about myself. She is good at what she does.

Andrea has helped me so much and I honestly don’t know what I would do without her help in such a vulnerable time in my life . She keeps me grounded and helps me figure out ways to realize things about myself in a different way .

Lucky to have her expertise and knowledge.

Andrea is fantastic! Her energy is great and she is helping me to make this an enjoyable experience that I actually think I can grow in. She's challenging me to grow partly by analyzing what is already here and also by helping me shift my view and providing me a safe space to really track things through, even when I'd rather not poke at them, and turn them into places to grow from. She really makes therapy into something I want to do because I'm learning and strengthening myself through instead of something I have to do because I'm "broken," "weak," or whatever else I grew up thinking going to therapy would prove me to be.
