For way too many years I've lived with no self esteem, depression, and unhealthy ways to try to escape from that. A few session with dr. Dearman and I am already noticing progress. He's extremely kind, sensitive, he really cares, he can identify the issue very quickly and work with the patient on a solution that is best tailored for them. I wish I had done this 10 years ago. Registering to BetterHelp was one of the best investments of time and money I've ever done, and I feel absolutely blessed to have been assigned to dr. Dearman. 13/10 recommended!
