My therapist, Jamell, is someone I look forward to talking with because she is relatable, down to earth, has a sense of humor, and knows how to break things down to make me think about them. She always ends our sessions with a good pep talk and I gain something every time. She is wonderful!

Jamell is quick to notice behavioral patterns, and after 6 months she has started to anticipate roadblocks in my mental health or thought processes that may get in the way of my success to help me prepare for them. This is hugely helpful; I look forward to our appointments because I know I will leave our sessions with a sense of purpose and direction.

Jamell has been a saving grace in my personal journey. I came to BetterHelp with past family trauma, single motherhood, and the desire to work on my tendency to people please. Jamell listens diligently with empathy and compassion, provides validation as well as helping to build tools and mindsets to overcome obstacles, and encourages me to look further inward and reflect on myself. She is extremely supportive while also challenging me to be the best version of myself. I consider myself lucky to have her as a counselor, and am thankful for all the guidance she has provided.
