These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ashley Johnnies. 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.
She is absolutely amazing. I love how comfortable she makes me feel and it's easy to open up to her. She's definitely listening and trying to understand my concerns.
