These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for James Edwards. 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.
My experience with James was brief but positive and helpful. It helped me set course towards letting go and moving forward.

Mr. Edwards is very down to earth, a great listener, and is great at responding to my messages, in between sessions. . He always looks for and finds ways to help me, help myself.

James has guided me out of a rough patch in my life. I came to him a mess and feeling very low; he listened to me and helped me uncover the negative thoughts that were keeping me stuck. He offered me practical tools and worksheets that allow me to come out those moments when I feel down and anxious. I am now in a better headspace, I feel lighter, and much much happier. Thank you, James!

He is amazing

James did an excellent job of listening to what was bothering me, pinpointing the problem, and giving me workable exercises to change my way of looking at things. Going in I felt self-conscious that my problems were not that important, but he never made me feel silly, or blew anything out of proportion. I would absolutely work with him again.

When I talk to James, it feels like I’m talking to a family member I really trust, from the moment here started talking to me I knew I’d like him. He’s very sweet, true and pays close attention to detail! And I can feel that he’s here to actually help.
