These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lauren French. 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.
Lauren is an amazing person who is so caring. She is a wonderful listener and always sees eye to eye. Lauren has helped me in so many ways and I can't thank her enough. She has walked me through some pretty crazy things and I know I couldn't have done them without her help! Lauren is always flexible when it comes to scheduling video calls!
