Karen has been a diamond in the rough. I’ve had the hardest time finding the right therapist who is understanding, compassionate but direct, practical, and able to apply her professional lens to the things I share with her. I feel so understood by her and she’s provided helpful resources and worksheets that I’ve used time and time again, whether it be to practice fighting well with my husband or looking inwardly at unhealthy behaviors and where they might root from (as well as how to combat them). I highly recommend Karen and BetterHelp as an affordable therapy channel!

Karen has helped me for this past few years dealing with a lot of things that has happened in my life.
I have been through such a rough years not in just the waking life, but also in my sleep which making me feel very anxious the moment I wake up.
The root of my problems are my toxic family. But, because I have Karen, I don't feel alone dealing with my problem. She listens to all of my problems.
If the better help ads never show up in my instagram, probably I will surely lose myself right now. But, the ads came just in the right moment, in the right place. And also I get the right counselor as well.
I hope Better Help can help a lot more people that needed help around the world, so many life can be save. In this chaotic world, there is still a dim of light of hope for people that looking for it.

Written on Aug 09, 2018 after therapy with Karen for 4 months on issues concerning relationship, intimacy-related, and anger
I've never worked with a therapist before. I don't have any mental illnesses or familty trauma, so I assumed I wouldn't get much out of a therapist. However, as a frustrated single woman in her 30s, I reached out to Karen hoping that she could help me recognize and improve on some of my dating patterns. As a result of our messages and phone calls, I'm breaking out of self-limiting patterns. I'm approaching my dating life in a way that's way more healthy and fun, rather than gossipy and dramatic. It feels great, and Karen has been instrumental to that change. No amount of self-help books would have gotten me to this point. I strongly recommend Karen to anyone looking for an approachable, responsive, upbeat therapist who can help them better understand themselves.

Karen Fisher is a very supportive counselor. She provides practical advice that is useful when navigating tough relationships. I was initially skeptical about counselling but working with Karen showed me that seeking professional help is essential when trying to repair broken relationships, mental health and well being. Thank you so much Karen for responding to my concerns and giving me well needed advice.

Karen is great. She knows completely what she is talking about, and if you get her as your counselor, you are in good hands. I cannot recommend her enough.

Karen is wonderful. She is very supportive and has helped me tremendously through a tough time. She was very timely in responding and even reached out to me when I hadn't messaged her in a couple of days. I highly recommend her to others.

Karen Fischer is simply amazing. I signed up for a month of therapy thinking I would need more than a month to sort all of the issues out. I have never done therapy and didn't really know how it works and I couldn't see anyone being able to help me if I didn't know how to help myself. Within one week I felt so much better which I honestly never imagined my life could improve so much in just one week. I highly recommend Karen she is very professional in the work she does and she responds to you relatively quickly.

Due to my schedule, more than likely I would not be in counseling if I had to physically be in an appointment for an hour like most counseling is set up. The fact that I can write out my thoughts and send them at the time I am thinking about it. Then get an email back later which gives both of us time to collect our thoughts. It is so nice to have time to think about what Karen last said and what my current thoughts are. In the past it was difficult for me to think of everything I would want to tell a counselor in that 1 hour of face to face time. I would leave and then think of some relevant thing I wanted to discuss but it was too late, the session was over. This method works so much better for me. I have had a phone conversation with Karen also that was very helpful. Karen has recommended books that have been enlightening. She is very supportive but also has a way of getting me to examine myself and encourages personal growth. Thank you Karen.

It's immensely helpful to have a neutral party to discuss my issues with. And with several options I can choose the most comfortable communication method for me. I appreciate Karen's thoughtfulness and quick responses.

I think Karen is a fantastic counselor. She responds in a timely manner and gives really helpful, no-nonsense insight into the situation by asking questions and helping you think through the issues. She has given me a lot of tools to be more stable and understand what I need and deserve in a relationship and helped me apply those tools.

In a time when I felt completely helpless I turned to Betterhelp as my last resort and all I can say is it has exceeded my expectations. Karen Fischer has been patient and kind with me. She has made me feel as though I am the only person needing help because she responds quickly and pays close attention to my life story and current situation. I could not have asked for a better person who I've come to depend on for emotional support and emotional survival tips. Thank you Karen.

Karen Fischer is amazing. I didn't know what to expect with this program but I felt comfortable with her right away. She's so patient even when I write books to her, and I adore that. She's really helping me see why I am how I am and offers great means to figure things out from different aspects, ones that I'd not seen before. I've always been rather an "off the record" "psychologist " for friends and strangers alike and being on the other side of the" desk", now I know how everyone I have helped feels. It's amazing to have someone there who doesn't judge and helps me grow and heal. Thank you, Karen, and thank you, BetterHelp. You have helped me start to rise up from a lot of dark places. The sun is peeking out of the dark clouds.
