These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michele Bryant. 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 have worked with several great therapists before, but Michele has been somebody who I could felt truly safe with perhaps for the first time. It's the way Michele listens to me, gives me space to feel and reflect, and asks me questions. I have been able to process some deep emotions that were trapped inside of me and gain new clarity about what I am seeking to heal thanks to her presence. I'm truly grateful.
