Written by N.A. on Feb 12, 2020 after counseling with Cheryl for 4 months on issues concerning depression, lgbt, and family conflicts

Chery has been a tremendous help to me in the last few months. She is caring and empathetic, and she's made me feel comfortable sharing things with her that I was afraid to share for fear of judgement. She always responds with professionalism and compassion, and I would definitely recommend her services.

I absolutely love my therapist. She’s really amazing and patient and she always takes time to address my concerns. She in no way belittles me or mocks the way I feel like some of my past therapist have.

Written by S.U. on Jan 07, 2020 after counseling with Cheryl for 1 year and 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and career difficulties

Cheryl is great. She is easy to talk to and helped me a lot in understanding my depression and anxiety. Once I learned how to distinguish between what is normal life struggles and what is caused by my conditions, I was able to be kinder to myself, which really helped me progress. I have made a lot of gains with Cheryl's help, and I am on my way to reaching my goals in therapy and in life. Thanks Cheryl!

She is excellent at making the experience of talking over video as close to an in person session as one can make it. You are well served if Cheryl is working with you.

Love it! I have weeks where going out to a counselor is very difficult time and emotion wise. Plus things come up during the week when you don’t have a session scheduled that day per regular therapy. With BetterHelp you have access to your therapist constantly no matter what the week throws you!! Love love love

Written by A.M. on Aug 23, 2019 after counseling with Cheryl for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting issues

Cheryl is very knowledgeable, understanding, and listens to my concerns. She has given insight to these concerns from a whole new perspective and is able to help guide me towards new paths and start thinking "zebras, not horses". She is very easy to talk to and the feedback she provides is honest, and personalized to fit my situation. She challenges me to think about my past in a new way which is helping to address future concerns as they arise too! Very thankful to have her help and guidance!!!

I have found Cheryl to be very supportive and timely in her replies, she has offered me lots of tools to improve my quality of life as I go through the fluctuations of daily living. Highly recommended.

Written by D.A. on May 29, 2019 after counseling with Cheryl for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, addictions, self esteem, and coping with life changes

Cheryl provides a formal counsel but in a casual and supportive way.

My counseling, until now, has been clearly focused on my issues and guided me to explore the challenges I face and the solutions I can manufacture.

I am able to communicate easily and honestly with Cheryl which is essential to discuss really personal things. I have no doubt that my counseling will develop as various goals are achieved.

The focus on well-being both in mind and body is really important to me and I have faith that this counseling is supporting that 100%.

I would recommend Cheryl to anyone who has a need for counseling; especially if you suffer from anxiety and need someone friendly to make it easier for you to communicate.

Written by M.I. on Mar 29, 2019 after counseling with Cheryl for 2 months on issues concerning relationship issues, and coaching

I have been speaking with Cheryl for the past few months and find her to be friendly, perceptive and insightful. Most beneficial is that she has experiences of her own and of other clients and is able to offer sensible advice in a very non-biased way. I appreciate all the help and support she has given me.

Wonderful and understanding. She is friendly, approachable and patient and a good listener. All these aspects are the reasons I've been able to take about my issues and concerns with ease with her.

Cheryl is punctual, pleasant and engaging. She is fully present during our interactions and were are developing a good rapport. I look forward to getting deeper in conversation as she gets to know me better.

Growth takes time, especially when you're working on wanting to better yourself. I think what I find most helpful is not only Cheryl's patience, but her support and compassion. It makes an immense difference. She actually cares to teach you, help you but most importantly makes sure that you understand the process as well. She's an amazing counselor, non-judgemental, listens to you and what you express and is overall a genuine counselor and person to confide in that does want to see you grow through a tough process.

10/10 in my book
