These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Bouchra Yassin. 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.

Dr. Yassin is the most understanding and most amazing therapist I have ever had!

Written on Oct 23, 2024 after therapy with Bouchra for 2 weeks on issues concerning bipolar disorder

I find working with Dr Yassin very helpful, and I always feel better after our sessions than I did at the beginning. Dr Yassin has expertise in the areas that match my circumstances so I feel very much in safe hands which is great as I hear many people reporting that their therapists don’t have the experience they’re looking for.

I find her knowledgeable, compassionate, reassuring, and empathetic, whilst also offering up different perspectives for me to consider when appropriate. Dr Yassin also seems to remember everything from our previous sessions, yet I have never noticed her taking notes in a way that distracts from the session! I always know that whatever has happened during the week, and however I am feeling, I will come away feeling heard, understood, and with greater clarity about the circumstances. I would highly recommend Dr Yassin.
