These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ellen Petacque. 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.
Ellen is thoughtful and knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone.
