These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Danielle (Dani) McTernan. 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.
I can’t recommend Dani enough, it’s taken me years to see a therapist and Dani’s been nothing but a good listener, given great advice and made me feel comfortable in myself.
Looking forward to more sessions!

I found talking with Dani to be extremely helpful! She listened and really understood my issue and had some great insights and even provided me with more resources! She was warm and caring and very easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her for anyone struggling or going through difficult circumstances.

Dani was so understanding and helped me feel comfortable to open up! I saw a difference within just a few weeks on how I perceived things and how I acted on things in life as well. I would highly recommend her expertise.

After long time having a hard time living abroad and feeling isolated, i could suddenly feel better after having first video conference with her. She's a good listener and its really enjoyable talking to her.

My therapy sessions with Dani have been really insightful. We only had 8 sessions though it helped me to transform years of anxiety and overthinking. Glad I was brave enough to finally go to therpay, and wish I've done it sooner!

I am looking forward to our sessions. It has been really helpful sharing my story with her. She is a really good listener and gives me a lot of useful tips. Even though she might not have experienced what I have, she does a really good job in working with me.
