These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for James Warner. 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.
James has been very helpful for me
I have worked with several therapists for the course of the last couple of years. While others had been treating symptoms of my core issues, Jim was the first to engage with me in a holistic way. He is no nonsense but sensitive to my fears even when I put up obstacles to avoid engaging. I cannot express how important he has been to assisting me in acknowledging my own ADHD without reducing me just to a diagnosis. He has helped me realize that I am enough as is and believe in myself in ways I don't ever remember being able to in my 40 years on this Earth.
He's great
James is patient and very approachable. I never feel judged and I enjoy his different ways of explaining a concept when I'm feeling stuck about something. I appreciate that he cites his sources and suggests extra materials for reading/viewing. Above all, I really appreciate that he does not pressure me. He simply presents and I always feel that I have the choice, the agency to make the decision for myself. He is also very accommodating regarding scheduling, is timely, and is always prepared for the session.
Great guy- super helpful. Happy I was connected with him.
James is the best. I started out thinking I needed DBT, he helped me to see that I was doing a lot better than I thought I was. Highly recommend him for anyone with ADHD issues.
Jim is amazing and a real deal if you want to help yourself. I connected with him when I needed it most in my life. I have been working with him over an year now and it has been honest journey of understanding and finding myself.
Jim was exactly what I needed at this point in my life. He helped me understand myself at a much deeper level and for that I thank him!
Jim has carefully and emphatically helped me through some of the lowest points of my life mentally and provided me a variety of methods and steps along the way to better understand myself.
James is a good listener. He identifies the areas I’m having problems with and offers helpful l, real suggestions on how to approach them. It has been my pleasure speaking with him, getting to know him, and working with him.
James is an all star. He listens carefully and uses his training and experience to augment my own skills and capabilities while helping me discover potential I didn’t realize I had. Through my sessions with him, he has helped me to change my perspectives and focus on putting my health and wellness first. If you are looking for someone to work with you on the path to health and well being, Jim is your guy.
Jim has been a godsend.
It feels like the stars aligned because he is proficient in dealing with all of the issues I have, and is able to give me insightful responses and ideas on how to deal with any given situation, in a way that is tailored to my personality and thought process.
He has taught me how to identify my issues and how to deal with them in a judgement-free way, and taught me not to be so hard on myself.
We've only been at it for a few months now, but I have made an incredible amount of progress in this short amount of time in regards to understanding myself. I still have a long way to go, but Jim has given me a fresh perspective on things that makes me excited to start my days.
I've silently struggled for my whole life with feeling alone trying to navigate a mountain in the dark. Dr. Warner has finally handed me a compass and a flashlight.
James is a consummate professional and I would highly recommend him. He's friendly and talks to you like a real person who cares for his patients.
James is truly amazing! He knows and understands what I’m dealing with along with helping me understand it along with the why’s and how’s of the issues. He then also gives me ways to make them better. Best part is he calls me out on my crap and doesn’t let me use “princess” answers. He also helps me with ideas of different things such as ways to make things happen but he always ties them back in to what I’m working on. He is so knowledgeable and open it makes talking to him easy!
Jim is really down to earth and I appreciate how he just tells it like it is. He is very supportive and our sessions always end on a positive note.
