These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Courtney Butler . 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.
She was responsive and reliable. I was able to schedule a phone meeting in short time and she helped me with writing prompts to figure out what I truly wanted to do in a challenging and emotional transition with a family member I had been estranged to. She understood the urgency of the situation’s timing and and helped me feel supported and understood. After the situation she also followed up with processing how that situation went and allowed me to respond at my own pace. Had a really positive experience with her :)
