These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Catherine Diosdado. 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.
Catherine is an extremely talented therapist. She is warm, engaged, and insightful. I always leave our sessions with new insights, different ways to reframe things, and very often, additional resources that I can take a look at between sessions. She is responsive to messages that I send between sessions. I can't recommend her enough.
