These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Marlene Luna. 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.
Marlene uses a very down-to-earth listening style with me which set me at ease from the very first session. She's been so perceptive of the negative talk that swirls around in my head, and has helped me reframe it to such an extent that my problems actually feel fixable. It's been a delight to work with her.
