Lisa is supportive and professional while engaging and caring. She and I were able to discuss a few situations for which she provided useable and relevant guidance and direction. The overall experience with BetterHelp has been positive, relevant and helpful.

Lisa listens to me and offers advice if i feel up for it or really just need someone to listen. Shes open minded and active in our sessions and asks follow up questions to check up with how im doing. She makes me feel confident in my recovery no matter how long it may take or if i falter here and there. Lisa is truly a great therapist and im glad i matched with her on BetterHelp.
