Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Courtney Strong-Gurr. 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.

Courtney is incredibly professional and always allows for space for me to process as well as offers support in various ways at each session. She has challenged me in ways that have allowed for me to grow and learn to love myself. She makes me feel comfortable, seen, and that I'm not in this alone.

She’s an understanding and thoughtful woman who knows that things people go through might not always be as easy as they let on. The fact that some people go through matters that are similar, while also being their own and thus completely different, helps give some insight and perspective, and without trying to repeat myself too much, understanding of things I go through myself.

Courtney is great. It’s hard to find a good fit for me but she clicked right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist right out the gate.
