These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lauren Greely. 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 really good at picking up on things that I don't specifically say. I like her catching me and noting small positive things that I say/do. It is really easy to talk to her. She gives me links to appropriate "homework." She is very present in our sessions. I feel like I usually have her full attention.
