These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Leslie Bottoms. 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.
I know that with the limited time we have per session and having just met, Leslie takes the time to listen and analyze what’s being said in order to properly assist the issue. Hopefully with more sessions we’ll be able to really tackle the root of these problems. I’m so ready for my self growth journey!

I’m still very new to Better Help. I haven’t even had my first live session yet, but Leslie has already helped me tremendously. I’ve known for a while I just needed an unbiased outlet to help me sort through a lot of things, and she has helped given me tools I’m a gentle way that keeps the conversation going and allows me to process what is at the root of the issue.
