These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Erika Fugere. 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.
Erika Fugere has excellent insight. She listens carefully and helps to open your mind to different thoughts and perspectives. She has been wonderful to work with each week and she is making a difference in my life.
