Lonetta Mason actually listens and responds. She's empathetic and sympathetic -- without judging. She has plenty of very real experiences in her young life to truly understand what's going on. If "homework" is your thing, she can definitely accommodate you. If not -- she fine with that too. If you get Lonetta as your therapist, you are on your way to finding answers. It won't be quick or cookie-cutter -- but it will involve some hard looks at your life, with lasting results. It's a big step -- but please know you are doing the right thing.

Lonetta has been great in helping me organize my thoughts and figure out what important steps I need to take for my personal growth and wellbeing. She gets straight to the point and doesn’t beat around the bush which I love.

I have only had one session with Lonetta so far but she has felt like the best fit for me as a therapist! It felt more like talking to a friend than a therapist really. I felt so comfortable after just one session. I like her therapy style - I felt that she was really listening to me and letting me air my concerns and then would give her opinion/provide solutions but in a way that felt more genuine rather than so clinical. Also she was very flexible with me and we've now set up a weekly session which I really appreciate. I look forward to continuing working with Lonetta!

Lonetta is very comfortable to speak with and listens to your concerns. She provides several tools to help but does not judge if some are not leveraged. Works with your schedule and is accommodating to the work/life balance that we all struggle with in our lives. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing some counseling.

Lonetta is warm and friendly, and she picks up on the subcontexts. I'm new to therapy and she has been extremely helpful in showing me ways to reframe my thinking and understand what I do and do not have control over.

Lonetta Mason is amazing! I'm not one to open up or discuss my problems with anyone until I met her. She listens and gives incredible feed back. I have already suggested better help to a couple of my close friends and told them they want Lonetta Mason.

Lonetta has been incredible at identifying the underlying issues among the tidal wave of emotions that I’ve been overwhelmed with. She helped me see the situation in more simple and logical terms with great kindness and empathy. She didn’t overstimulate or make judgments and rather was a very calming and open presence. I could speak in any terms and did not have to filter my scrambled thoughts and she somehow managed to see right through and completely understand what I was trying to say. It’s crucial for anyone who needs help that they feel heard and Lonetta really heard me. I got the help I desperately needed at the time and all the practical and effective self-care, stress management and change of perspective I could use for future situations. I’m in a much better place in a couple weeks with Lonetta at Better Help than I have been for several months. Thank you

Lonetta is truly an amazing counselor. I was very unsure about therapy but having a strong woman on my side has been phenomenal. She tells it like it is, no fluff, but without being too harsh. She is GREAT!
