Guided by the client's desires and needs, I utilize interventions from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Responsive Care among other evidence-based practices.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Genevieve Sofranec. 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.
It was pure magic being paired with Genevieve. She is such a positive influence in my life and helped me navigate difficult decisions throughout the time I met with her. The ease of talking to her made the experience of being in therapy so much more memorable and impactful.

I tend to try and deal with things on my own so when I finally got to the point where I decided I needed therapy, I was really lucky to find Genevieve. I was lucky in finding a therapist who understood a lot of the hobbies, gets on tangents with me, and manages to get me to talk about my problems as I usually try to brush them under the rug. I enjoy that we have similar personality traits, so that I have someone who relates while also being able to give professional ideas and tips on how to better myself. I feel more comfortable talking to her than I usually do with anyone else!
