These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dawn Adler. 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.

Dawn is a kind and patient listener, she never makes me feel judged or rushed. She helped me find the direction I was looking for and ferret out my core issues. Her questions helped me find insight into the heart of my confusion and anxiety. I would recommend 10/10 to anyone struggling to make a major life decision.

Dawn was very helpful, patient, respectful, understanding, and knowledgeable! There when needed, even if it wasn't a scheduled session, I am very appreciative!
