I've been speaking with Ann for almost a full year now, and the goals I have accomplished so far have helped me tremendously with coping with my day-to-day, and working through obstacles. Also, revisiting my past to help lay down old wounds for more peace. I appreciate the attentiveness, attention, and guidance I've received. I've always struggled with finding a therapist that actually works for me, and Ann is the first to make me feel safe to vent and work through corners. Now, I recommend better help and their core values with finding a therapist that fits you.

She’s nothing short of incredible. She’s helped me so much. I welcome the tears as healing instead of pain. I always feel so much less heavier after sessions with her and the way she reaches me is not like any other therapist I’ve had before. I’m really glad I’m here and I’m really glad she picked up my case. Beyond thankful for Ann.

I've only had one session with Ann so far, but we've talked outside of sessions and she's always responded promptly and with sound advice. Ann has been really great and helpful so far. I look forward to continuing working with her.

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.
