These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Cassandra Vallese. 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 instantly felt that Cassandra was able to meet me where I am and provide me with meaningful and educated feedback. These were main features I was hoping would be part of the therapeutic experience and our relationship. I'm so happy to be connected with her now as she is supporting me through an incredibly challenging time.

I only had 2 sessions with Cassandra . So far she seems very sympathetic to my grief. And wants to be there to help me.

Cassandra is an excellent therapist. She’s extremely responsive and understanding. I’ve had many therapists over the last 20 years and she immediately understood my needs.

I’ve been through more these past months and I’ve been struggling just to make it by. Cassandra has done more than I could ever imagine. She breaks me down to make me cry and get through the pain. It’s scary but it’s needed. I have a very hard time talking to people about what happening in my life. Talking to Cassandra is great because I don’t have to hide. She has kept me alive
