Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Pete Cooper . 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.
He’s kind. Unbiased. Open minded. Experienced. He does not disappoint. My first time having a male therapist and I will never be going back. He’s wonderful.
I have been working with Dr Cooper years back and now again through BetterHelp. He listens, understands and if he doesn’t he will tell you and listen till he does. Sometimes his sound answers come when he has had a chance to digest. I like this as s it shows he listens and will give thought and not just go for the obvious feel good response. I always leave a session looking forward to the next.
I really enjoyed my time working with Pete. He's compassionate, listens to my problems and asks great questions that help me see things from unique perspectives (which is exactly what I was looking for in a therapist). I would definitely recommend Pete to anyone looking for therapy.
Dr. Cooper has helped me turn my life around. I was in a dark place a year and a half ago, but with his help, I've been about to turn everything around and I am so much more optimistic about what life has in store for me.
Dr. Cooper not only listens but offers insight and actionable advice. He not only helps me process what I feel or experience but also helps me understand why I am experiencing such things. Moreover, Dr. Cooper is flexible in that although he may establish a particular course of action, he is willing to set aside the day's agenda to address circumstances that may have arisen unexpectedly since our last meeting. Dr. Cooper is a wonderful therapist and provides succinct, thorough advice and insight that is easily digestible.
Dr Cooper is awesome. I look forward to our weekly conversations.
Dr. Cooper is incredibly helpful. He works with my schedule and is very supportive. I would highly recommend.
So great
This year was my first time doing something like this. I was assigned Dr. Cooper as my first therapist. Throughout this year, he has helped me uncover trauma I never knew I had. I am now able to open a new chapter in my life, thanks to the help of Dr. Cooper. He is a very good listener, and provides excellent feedback.
Before my first session with Dr. C., I didn’t know what to expect. I’ve tried therapy before, but it wasn’t working for numerous reasons. This time, I said I wanted to try a male therapist.
When I met with Dr. C., I finally felt like I really found someone who is down to earth. Understands a lot of what I’m dealing with, but also he’s helping me in the most efficient and promising ways. I thoroughly enjoy my sessions every week with him.
Dr. Cooper is awesome! He listens to all my concerns and gives the best advice and has helped with all my target reasons for joining this app. He answers all concerns very quickly and is very easy and comfortable to talk to.
Dr. Cooper is friendly and professional.
Straight to the point and will take real one on one time to provide insights and strategy to problems.
He is also compassionate and has a vast knowledge of philosophy, ancient religions, and an arsenal of fine material. I don't know where he keeps it all, he is great! I consider myself very lucky to have him.
Dr. Pete is the greatest!
Dr. Cooper has been my counselor for the past 2 months or so, and I feel like my life has gotten much better since talking with him. He listens to me and takes everything I say to heart and has given me very good advice.
Dr. Cooper is an amazing person and counselor. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a friend and or counselor. Such wisdom and great advise.
Its only been about 2 months since i started using betterhelp, but Dr. Cooper has really helped be out tremendously. He isnt judgemental and is extremely understanding. It feels like he genuinely wants to see me succeed and help me out.
Dr. Cooper has been very attentive to issues surrounding my psychological and emotional well being which is very important when dealing with all the stress that's been present in my life.
Dr Cooper has been great to talk to. He’s been someone who has helped me see the bigger picture, and that’s really helped me collect my thoughts to make the best decisions.
Dr. Cooper is an empathetic, solution oriented counselor that will work with you on which therapeutic approach is best for you. He is extremely knowledgeable and provides great resources during our sessions. He pushes his clients to think critically and mindfully about their lives, and encourages growth during each session. I appreciate how thoughtful he is when he answers questions or guides the conversation toward necessary topics. It is clear that he prioritizes making his clients comfortable during vulnerable moments. I have gained a lot of tools for my" mental health resource tool kit" because of him. A+ dude, doesn't laugh at all when I ramble about dragons and motorcycles.
Dr. Cooper provided really exactly what I needed to improve my self-esteem and recognize my own potential. He helped me with a variety of issues, but most notably he helped me bring my self-confidence to a new level that I can already feel is improving my life.
Just getting started with BetterHelp and Dr. Cooper and I’ll just say, I’m SO thankful for both! BetterHelp has given me a way of keeping a Journal and having some self accountability for keeping up with it because I know someone is going to be looking at it and talking to me about it! Dr. Cooper has been attentive helpful and supportive after every journal entry I make, letting me know he did in fact read it, and then in the 1 video session we have had thus far, has talked to me about almost all the things I’ve brought up in my journals! Very satisfied so far 10/10, 5 stars, can’t wait to continue!
Dr. Cooper has greatly exceeded my expectations for experiences with a therapist. He is very knowledgeable, and working with him has greatly helped me resolve my issues with anxiety. Most significantly, I do not ever feel like he is being judgmental towards my issues, life, or concerns. I highly and enthusiastically recommend him!
He actually listens instead of forcing me to just hear ideas! He tells me what I need to do but understands that it isn't easy for me and I love the fact that he gives scenarios and examples to help me actually understand what I'm supposed to be learning! Very patient and down to earth!
Dr. Cooper is a highly professional, thorough, and compassionate therapist who offers both a client-centered approach and flexible schedule which employs various therapeutic technics specifically tailored to the needs of his patients. He gives particular attention to his patient's needs in counseling and affords his patients with the opportunity to take an active role in their therapy. I am grateful for both his advice and guidance in our sessions and especially appreciative that he holds me accountable to my expressed goals in therapy. I would highly recommend Dr. Cooper and BetterHelp counseling services to friends and family, alike.
hes great and supports me
