These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Giancarlo Pia. 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.
I have been working with Mr. Pia for more than a year, and to say his therapy has been transformative is an understatement. He is kind, patient, supportive, and has helped me become a more calm, focused, and confident person. As a gay man, I've found his insights particularly helpful and I feel like he understands me deeply. I look forward to our weekly sessions, and his thoughtful guidance has helped me live a more balanced and fulfilling life. He's the best!

He has been an amazing therapist thus far. Very understanding and flexible with rescheduling needs when something comes up. Has been very helpful with neurodivergent forms of thinking, lgbt+ issues, living with a disability, and working through trauma. All around, couldn’t have asked for a better match

I cannot express how grateful I am to have met Giancarlo and worked with him. As someone who is really trying to grow into my own skin a bit more, and accept and understand parts of my identity, I couldn't have found a better person or professional to help.

I found he is very thoughtful and working on exactly what my needs are. His listening skills are brilliant, and ability to bring aspects that provoke thought are very good for me. It’s been a great experience.
