She’s awesome

Written on Apr 29, 2024 after therapy with Kristie for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, eating disorders, parenting issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes

She’s very warm and makes me feel heard.

Kristie has been so wonderful! She understands my goals and has great ideas on how to get there. I gave gotten so lucky that I have her. She responds very quickly. She checks in on me. She never judges me. She has great points and advice. She listens and her calm voice is soothing.
Her insights are amazing. I'm not a very open person. I mean it's not easy to see my inner workings but she's so observant that she can. I'm fortunate and extremely grateful.

Kristie is an exceptional therapist. She's empathetic while still responding with humour when the situation warrants. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get started with Better Help.

My first session with Kristie made me feel heard and understood. I was assigned homework which showed me she wants to help me...and I love that she's available to chat at any time. This makes me feel like I am in a safe place to reach out to her at no matter what. She asked me deep questions and was very thorough when giving me feed back.

Kristie is great. She listens to me and really understands and evaluates what I am going through and comes up with great ideas about things to try to help. Then she checks on me between sessions. A true professional that offers actual solutions rather than just talking.
