These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Martha Bustamante. 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.
I so look forward to my sessions with Martha. She is empathic and at the same time challenges me to consider options when I feel stuck, even brainstorms ideas at times. It is easy to see that she brings a lot of experience to the session and she always asks what additional resources I may need so she is willing to work on that between times. Very grateful to be matched with her.

Martha was amazing. She listened offered resources to read. She was not pushy and let me set the pace. I set specfic goals. Learned to speak more assertively and set boundaries I benefited from the experience. I would work with Martha again.
