Chris always responds and gives me concrete ways to work through my issues

Christopher Mckillop was my second Better Help therapist, after having less than a connection with the previous.
I found him to be highly intelligent and understanding of my thoughts and feelings through calm reasoning and an expert logical perspective.
My favorite aspect about Chris would be his dependable tone of voice. He is someone who seeks rationality without preconceived judgment. Very refreshing.
Thanks Chris!

Mr. McKillop is absolutely wonderful at what he does here. He takes the time to listen and gives meaningful advice for a variety of different situations. There is no rush to move on to a different topic and he does his best to understand and give a voice of reason when it’s needed.

Chris has helped me tremendously through the past year I’m getting myself focused on my needs and how to handle a lot of my anxiety. He’s very understanding and compassionate in handling everything as well.
