I was hesitant about using this app, but working with Lee has made it a positive and rewarding experience. She responds in a timely manner, gives me good perspective and often offers resources for me to look up/watch/listen to for whatever topic we are discussing. She is empathetic, professional, and knowledgeable about a variety of approaches and methods that we implement in order to address concerns and reach therapeutic goals. Highly recommend.

Lee is such a wonderful soul and you'll feel immediately at ease being open with her. I needed someone with life experience to share wisdom that I haven't acquired yet. Her joy, care and deep interest in me made me feel safe. I continue to enjoy her as my therapist. :)

Lee is so patient and kind and does an incredible job of helping see things from a different angle that gives me helpful perspective. I truly believe that she is invested in my health, both mental and physical, and she genuinely cares. She does a great job of reaching out to me when she sees I’ve not responded or reached out in a little while. I would highly recommend Lee. 10/10 would recommend.

Lee has been a wonderful guide through my emotional tormoil. She has helped me create easily understandable and realistic goals for myself that opened my eyes to many personal hurdles. And it was her guidance that allowed me to train and overcome those hurdles. All my therapy goals were met, and I feel so much more whole for it. I can't thank her enough, but thank you so verry much, Lee Monahan. You helped me to see who I am.

Lee is not only a great therapist but she’s a wonder and a delight to work with. We only just began but the woman is an angel, talking to her is easy and delightful and she is so down to earth. I don’t feel like I’m at therapy with her I feel like I’m with an old friend just one who’s very good at unraveling the enigma that is my brain!

I found Lee's guidance to be extremely helpful. I reached out to BetterHelp for support dealing with anxiety. Lee provided me with tools to work through the anxiety and better deal with the issue. Definitely recomend!

Lee is very experienced and offers supportive, thoughtful advice and feedback in our sessions. I was amazed by how quickly Lee came to understand my primary concerns and goals with counseling. With brief 30 minute sessions conducted over the phone, one would think that really feeling heard and understood would be impossible, but I knew Lee was a great match for me within the first few minutes of our first session. I especially appreciate her willingness to suggest various modalities and methods of therapy, depending on the individual and their beliefs or tendencies.

Lee is spectacular very great active listening and a comfortable 70-30 conversation. And the short amount of sessions I've had I feel like we're reaching to great things and I'm looking forward to continuing my conversations with Lee.
