These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ann Sumpter . 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.
Ann is the best fit for therapy I've had so far. I'd highly reccomend her.

Ann’s approach to therapy, of my experience, is both professional and laidback as if talking to a friend. She is a careful listener, understanding your point of view as if she can visualize it. I didn’t think twice about keeping her as my therapist— a friend who knows how to mend a broken heart and torn mind.

My therapist has been great. My only criticism about Betterhelp would be the payment structure. I wish there was a pay as you go option.
