Heather was great help during a rough time, helped me look through different aspects of the situation and come to closure with a few things. I appreciate everything she did for me

Heather is my second counselor on BetterHelp and I really feel she gets me. There have been a few times she responded slower than I would like, but overall I really enjoy working with her

Heather listens to my concerns and is also so supportive. She is easy to talk to and probably the best person to talk to when you need help.
