I was skeptical about therapy in general, but Jan made me a believer. She is incredibly kind and patient and helpful. No matter how YOU look at something, she can help you look at it differently if that’s what needs to happen. She is a calming presence in my life- and you can tell that she really cares about her patients.

I’m so glad I got matched with Jan. I really feel like she hears me and puts me at ease in a way many therapists have not. She sends me helpful links to address my problems that can empower me. Our talks feel productive. Also as a small business owner I really appreciate her career coaching knowledge as well. I’m so glad I gave Better Help a try.
