These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Marjorie Woodruff. 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.
Dr Woodruff is amazing. She’s polite professional and knows how to lighten up a mood with a joke here and there which I enjoy lol. She’s someone to speak to about anything and everything she really makes me feel comfortable and this is my first time doing therapy. I look forward to going to therapy and after my sessions with Dr. Woodruff i feel leaving great like I do after my workouts from the gym. She’s very good at what she does and she actually hears you she isn’t just listening to just answer she’s listening to understand and give you direction in life and how to go about handling things. Wouldn’t go to anyone else to be honest .

Dr. Woodruff is not only incredibly knowledgeable, she is very empathetic. I have been in therapy for years and her approach is an approach I have not tried before and it has been really helping me. She is very understanding, compassionate, and very helpful.
