Joddy understands me very well and knows how to guide and give me a push at the right time. She listens to my questions and gives me great and respectful answers. Our values and faith are alike so it helps me trust her guidance. I would and have recommended BetterHelp to my family and friends because of Joddy.

Very straight forward and positive perspective. Thank you so much!

Joddy isn’t the way I anticipated a therapist to be, and it’s in the most comforting way. She’s direct, ackowledges, and helps navigate my emotional processing in an adult direct way.

Joddy is the best! Very comfortable to talk to, but also not scared to hold you accountable. 10/10

My therapist is great. At first, I was very nervous, but it got easier once I relaxed and got more comfortable.
