My experience with Linda has been fantastic. I was very hesitant when my wife recommended Better Help as I didn’t think talking to someone over the phone would be as beneficial as meeting someone in person but in actuality it works perfectly as I set the schedule that works for me and can do so from the comforts of my home. Linda is professional and always mindful of how she approaches recommendations to assist me in becoming a better form of myself. I would recommend Linda and Better Help to anyone that is skeptical as I was and I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised.
