In my 40+ years of counseling, I have been fortunate to have experienced a broad range of issues with which people are faced with in their lives. My endeavor is to bring that experience to those who may benefit. In particular, working within family systems would have to be my strongest foundational area of expertise. From this foundation, I've gained specialized knowledge in the areas of couples's relationship issues, substance abuse, and affective disorders. In particular, I've worked a great deal with treatment resistant depression and bipolar disorder. Even so, all the knowledge in the world is only useful if provided in the context of a caring, respectful therapeutic relationship. I've had numerous compliments from my colleagues regarding my unique style and its effectiveness.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Holly Slapinski. 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.
Holly is an incredibly amazing therapist. She makes me feel valued and even though we cover heavy topics, I never feel anxious in talking to her. She has a way to make you feel like you're an old friend catching up over tea, and that you can trust her sage advice.
