I’m so grateful I found this app & that I was matched with Martha. It’s amazing how sometimes all you need is a listening ear to feel renewed hope. I appreciate how Martha listens & communicates. She always has great pearls of wisdom. You can tell that she truly cares about what she is doing & puts time & effort into understanding my struggles. She manages to guide me to realizations in a gentle way by asking great questions that help me reflect. I love that I get notes from our sessions right in the app after each appointment too. It helps me to remember what we’ve talked about, which has been helpful for going back to look at when I’m trying to remember a suggestion for various situations we’ve discussed. I’ve never gotten so much done at other hour long sessions over the course of weeks than I have with half the time here! I’ve been telling everybody about this app & couldn’t recommend it & Martha Higgins more highly.

Martha is such a welcoming and warm person. She makes it so easy to open up and truly understands what you are saying. You can tell she is very invested in what she does, sending check ins, listening closely, sending applicable resources and remembering the small details. 10/10 would recommend working with Martha.

Martha is sweet, understanding, and very engaging. You can tell she cares and wants to help and provides you with the resources to allow yourself to think and ask questions you wouldn't normally ask yourself.

She’s very personable, but not afraid to tell you how something is. In Canada many therapists shy away from upsetting the patient and Martha is very honest about what she believes is going on and in a soft touch conveys her message.

She makes you feel heard and comfortable. After my first therapy session with the app I was incredibly disappointed and thought that this was a scam. I decided to give it another try and once I choose Martha I felt 100% better. She provides more than I could have asked for.
