Christine is an excellent counselor who understands my needs, is an amazing listener and is very intuitive. I feel like I am talking to a friend who is helping me deal with my issues which is a great feeling. She checks in with me in between our sessions. She is very caring and awesome. A solid, smart great person!

Christine was very warm and welcoming from the beginning. She's a great listener and is very good at putting herself in other's place. She always checked in on me to see how I was doing even when it wasn't our scheduled appointment time. She helped build emotional strength in me, as I moved forward in many aspects in my life. I was periodically given worksheets on my goals and self assessment, that proved to be very helpful as well. Always punctual, always with a good disposition and dependable ! I definitely recommend!!

She is excellent to work with! After our first conversation I walked away feeling hopeful and felt like Christine was really able to listen and zone in on a plan to help me process things. I haven't had .y second session yet but I definitely look forward to it.

Christine was super great! Our time together was a bit limited but she listened intently and gave me so many great strategies that will help me going forward. She was super easy to talk with and I would definitely recommend to any friend.

Christine Dennis, is helping me make my mental health a priority. She and I message back and forth multiple times a day and she addresses my issues in a way that feels like I am conversing with a friend.

When it comes to therapy, I have been attending on and off for 8 years and it hasn't worked in the past -- I find I am not telling the whole truth and not verbalizing my needs and concerns well. I find it easier to be honest and hold myself accountable using betterhelp as I can verbalize my feelings better over messaging. Christine is very available to chat whenever I find myself in need of her help and I would recommend her and betterhelp to anyone who needs the extra help!

Christine took me for where I was at and provided me with safety. She is incredibly easy to talk to and versatile; sessions had to be a mix of text, audio, and video. Any medium we used to communicate worked well! She often checked in on me during the week, which meant everything when I was in the pit of depression. Knowing someone cared made all the difference. Thank you!

My first experience with any kind of counseling has been through BetterHelp. Christine has always created a safe and comfortable space to communicate, and she messages back frequently. Although I have to take a break from the app for a while, I’ve found that working with Christine has helped me to approach my day to day in a much more positive, constructive perspective. If at any point I’m confronted with some negative or unhealthy thought patterns, I’m confident that I now have the tools to work through them. Thank you for making this such a pleasant learning experience Christine !
