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

I thank God for having Carolyn as a therapist. There are not enough words to describe how much she has helped my mental health. She has strengthened me not only emotionally but also spiritually. I would not be sober or free from the grips of anxiety that I have been a slave to for over two years without Carolyn. She not only gives advice but she is a walking example of how to be emotionally and spiritually healthy and strong. She is a beautiful child of God and a blessing that has changed my life for the better.

I’ve been working with Carolyn for a few months now and I feel that she’s a wonderful therapist. She listens and allows me to go at my own pace, without prompting me, she allows me to discuss as much or as little as I wish, but it’s not difficult to be upfront with Carolyn during my sessions. Our sessions are a safe place for me and I’m so happy I found Carolyn and BetterHelp!
