Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for James Smith. 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.

He is honest and warm, with a compassionate yet grounding perspective. He has life experience and much to share in balancing life between career and personal wellness- both challenging me to get out my comfort zone and taking time to slow down and make myself a priority in not just what I want but what I need. Im a workaholic and am glad he has been flexible and patient in staying with me, despite my sporadic schedule. I really appreciate that he gets right into it (how do you really feel) even if he hasn't heard from me for a month or two, so we dont have to start from scratch in warming up to things with small talk. He is laid back and patient and confident.

James is truly fantastic. He enables me to think holistically about my problems and helps me navigate many many situations with tangible real life solutions. He never directly prescribes solutions but naturally nudges you towards multiple options. He is one of a kind and I would highly recommend him!!!
