These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Curllin Alexis. 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.
It took me a while to find a therapist that was attuned to my concerns, that understood that I neede more that just a place to vent and that would help me better understand myself. I am happy with the work we are doing and I feel I am in trusted professional hands.
