These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Frances Dallison. 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.
Frances gives me the space to say what I feel, she listened very carefully, and reflects very clearly what I am feeling. It gives me a sense of not being alone, of being able to share without judgment. From ten first session I received from her tools to express and accept what I am feeling . She helps me tremendously. Thank you Frances

Working with Frances has been a life-changing experience. She's helped me in ways that I can't fully articulate. She listens and understands me almost effortlessly it seems.

Therapy session with Frances was very helpful as a first timer. I never believed in therapy but this has changed my perspective on this.
