Mario helped me to understand my feelings were normal and understood my challenges. There’s no simple fix, and I appreciated that. I look forward to more productive conversations. I like the better help app because it is nimble and allows me to request support as needed or schedule regularly.

We have had our 2nd session and I am strongly encouraged to continue. I am finding it very helpful to speak about things that I usually don't to someone who is so insightful.

I would definitely recommend Mario to anybody going through a hard time. I went into therapy when I was dealing with multiple difficult situations, and he helped me so much to sort through my problems. He not only suggested ways to work through them, but made sure that I learned the skills and tools needed in order to work through them without him. He is easy to talk and joke with and it always feels comfortable with him. I never felt like he was passing judgement on me and always felt as though he was reassuring me that there wasn’t anything “wrong” with me, and I could tell that he only wanted the best for me. I give him a 10/10!

Mario en 3 secciones que e tenido a sabido muy bien como asegurarse de darme lo mejor de su profesión, estoy muy contento con su ayuda y con el profesionalismo que lo hace.

Let me tell you about my experience as a beginner therapy patient. It has been very reassuring that BetterHelp provided a therapist who has training and experience in treating the trauma, anxiety and depression, for which I was seeking assistance to begin with. In our weekly video conferences, Mario Arias has shown me a compassionate way to challenge my thoughts and beliefs. He is very professional and I like the fact that not every session is the same. Also I can communicate by chat at different times if I need to. I believe I have developed a good rapport with him, that has been very important to me.
