Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lisa Smith. 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.
Lisa is a great listener and has helped me find real solutions to problems I thought I had to work out on my own. She checks in often and gives me things to think about between sessions. I highly recommend her for her kind, compassionate, and down to earth conversations.

Lisa is easy to talk too. I enjoy our conversations with the new insights and coping mechanisms she's discussed with me.
