These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Daphne Washington. 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.
Dr. Washington is patient, kind, and caring. She causes me to think about my thoughts and to judge whether they are true or not. She causes me to dig through the weeds to find the truth. I have grown stronger and more confident in the time we have been meeting together.

Dr. Washington has been such a blessing to me. She is so thorough and detailed, after every call I get a very detailed summary that I can go back and recap our visit. She always has a listening ear and resources to help you on your journey even if it may fall out of the scope of her expertise. I feel heard, supported, and overall super comfortable sharing anything with her. I never felt judged or condemned for anything; talking to her is easy. I loved being able to share my faith with her and she was able to help support me in that way as well. She is very responsive and always gets back to me quickly. I would recommend Dr. Washington to anyone and can confidently say she played a pivotal role in my growth this year.

Dr. Washington is an excellent therapist. She is thoughtful and asks meaningful questions. She keeps therapy going outside of weekly sessions with ongoing dialogue. I was lucky to find her!
