Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joanne Piedra. 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.
I was a mess when Joanne started helping me. She helped prioritize where to start, and by tackling the addiction issues, I was able to get to some deeper issues. Highly recommended.

Joanne has been the voice of reason I didn't know I needed in my life. It is truly a liberating feeling to share, communicate & learn from someone with so much empathy and life experience.
