These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for David Whiteman. 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.
He was great, and very understanding. Had a good mix of giving feedback and listening

Mr. Whiteman has been a caring therapist who's willing to call out flawed thinking (which is something I value highly in a therapist) and has been able to relate to me on a human level, as opposed to a textbook approach. He's able to tackle a wide array of issues in an integrative manner.

Troy was a great help in such a small amount of time. He helped me tackle my anxiety and stress levels. His anecdotes are always helpful.

Very thoughtful and helps unpack complicated feelings or emotions, in a very productive way to help sort through how to acknowledge your experiences and change for the better.

Troy has made himself available with off schedule appointments and messaging to help accommodate my busy schedule and weekly therapy needs. Every session I walk away with a little more insight and some new suggestions on managing my mental health. I always leave therapy with a few great takeaways. Either something he said caught my attention or a useful tool/exercise is suggested . He doesn’t force the conversation down a certain path with agenda. We kind of let the talk take us where we need to go.
