My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each client's unique journey, with expertise in addressing stress, anxiety, grief, and career difficulties.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Monica DuShane. 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.
Monica is the support system that I needed to address past trauma and gain coping skills and clarity for a better future. She is kind, wise, and helpful. I am so grateful for Monica and BetterHelp.
