These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Michael Schmit. 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.
Michael is a very empathetic listener, and has keen insights into everything we've discussed. He makes me feel happier when I talk to him, like the things I want to achieve are within reach. He has good suggestions for me. I trust and value his advice. I'm going to stick with Michael for a long time.

Dr Michael had been fantastic in our short time together & I look forward to each session. He is an excellent listener & has simple solutions to my complicated issues. It’s been my pleasure to work with him & I’m now recommending him & therapy to friends & strangers alike. Which is odd for me to openly talk about. But I am thoroughly embracing this journey & my openness has been embraced by all. Especially Dr Michael & I could not recommend him more. 5 stars
