I was initially skeptical about on line counseling. But it is a great idea! Dionne is a kind person who stays in touch and she respects and understands my situation. So glad I found Dionne.

I must say, this has been the best therapeutic services I've ever received and that's both in person and virtually. I would not only recommend BetterHelp to anyone in need to speak to someone but I would definitely recommend Dionne as well.
