These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Geraldine Noel. 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.
Reading Geraldine's profile spoke to me as someone I would like to work with. Our first meeting confirmed I made the right choice. We have only had 2 sessions so far, but I feel that I finally found the counsellor to support me in the areas I want to work on.

Geraldine is very patient and asks questions to allow you to delve into your own feelings of a situation, some of which I had never considered before. I felt comfortable talking with her and appreciate the space and validation she provided. I would highly recommend Geraldine.

I have only started with Betterhelp recently and only had a few sessions with Geraldine but I'm already starting to see an improvement in my symptoms and my level of anxiety. Only small but it's significant as I have been doing nothing but declining for a long time now.
I'm following all the advice that Geraldine gives me in the sessions and she gives me tasks and worksheets to complete and I really respond to that way of working and appreciate that I have something to work on each week. I have found focus difficult in the past but this is small things to focus on which makes it alot more manageable for me.
I am hoping that I continue to make progress and I'm really pleased that I found Betterhelp and Geraldine

After the first session I felt a weight had been lifted off my shoulders and she is checking up with me regularly

I feel disarmed during her sessions and it's easy to communicate with her. I feel she hits the spot always when assessing what I am going through and is able to really help and encourage me. I feel really blessed to have her as my therapist!
