These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Fulisha Burks. 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.
The first therapist that doesn’t seem like she’s ticking a box. First session, i immediately felt hopeful in my mental health.

Fulisha has been great at connecting with me. She helps me identify what is it that I want and how I should go about getting it. Therapy with her has also helped me recognize some of my own patterns and how to tweak them or break them completely. Fulisha is great at guiding me to realize what to prioritize, what matters the most right now, and how to protect ME/my mental health.
