These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Paula Savarese. 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 been so many different counselors over the years and Paula actually listens and gives advice on how to help unlike previous counseling that mostly just nodded their head. Never gave me any solutions on how to help get myself better
