These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kimberly Rickels. 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.
Very nice person to talk to and understanding of my issues. Had some good suggestions for me going forward. I highly recommend her as a therapist.
