These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ivan Navarro. 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.
Ivan gave me a great first impression of psychotherapy. He listened, remembered, and provided realistic actionable strategies to help me reduce my anxiety and worry. He reminded me there’s more than one way to show love, that it’s okay to be sad, and that feeling this spectrum of emotion is part of healing. I am so grateful to have been matched with him.

I have had only one session but it was good and I think he understood my situation and we set already a goal.
