These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Pamela Thompson. 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.

Pam has been a great resource for me. She has listened to my ups and downs, my failures and successes. I haven’t felt judged which i was afraid might happen half way through when i did the opposite of what we talked about. She has been so patient with me and understanding. I would highly recommend her.

Mrs. Thompson actually listens when you talk and doesn't give you the feeling of being judged. She gives advice on your situation like a friend would, but with the knowledge and training to back it up.
