After just 3 weeks of talking to Dara, I have turned my life around! Her support through messaging and our weekly appointments has helped me not feel alone. I had a horrible experience with my therapist 3 years ago and even with that trauma, I feel comfortable talking to her about anything! I am very grateful for her and the help she has given me even in this 3 week period! I finally am learning who the real me is after years of confusion and addiction. That says a lot!

Dara is excellent! Our sessions feel as if I’m talking to a long lost friend who only wants the best for me. 1000/10 would recommend her for anyone just starting therapy and is nervous to talk to someone about their life. You’re awesome Dara!

Dara is an EXCELLENT therapist. When I talk to her, I feel as comfortable with her as I would a sister or a friend. She understands my concerns, acknowledges them, and views them as valid. She sees me for being me...not for the disorder I have. Thank you, Dara, for being a lifesaver.

Dara has helped me work through so much the last few months. My mental health and coping abilities have greatly improved as a result of working with her. Along with addressing underlying past experiences, she’s been a great support through other unexpected circumstances that have occurred in my life recently. I appreciate the time she also takes to check-in with me between our regular sessions.

I was a bit apprehensive with BetterHelp but I was really lucky to have Obaogodara as my first counsellor, she is is really easy to talk with and understands you as well as offers great support. I’m really thankful for her words of wisdom, perspective and counsel.

One of the few times where I have finally felt in tune with a therapist. I felt I could communicate and share my thoughts freely. Obaogodara has been great at helping me find my own voice and understand myself. Couldn't recommend more!

They are very kind and knowledgeable. They listen well and have great advice to give. They give loads of encouragement. I've had three counselors so far and Obaogodara is by far my favourite. I feel very comfortable and safe speaking with them. They are very flexible and allow time for you to get warmed up to them before starting to do any of the live sessions. I highly recommend them!
