I’ve only started working with Petra recently. I really appreciate her nonjudgmental approach. I’m going through a particularly private and difficult situation.

I had the pleasure of working with Petra for 6 months. I turned to her to help me navigate and create a healthier relationship with my boyfriend. What ended up happening was she helped me navigate a better relationship to myself. The relationship didn’t survive but thanks to her I see that it’s not all my fault and I’m worthy to be in a relationship that’s a give and take. I’ve had other counselors before and I didn’t receive the help I need like I did with her. On our fist session she gave me tools to help me with overthinking and how to self regulate my thoughts. That is a priceless gift to bestow on a person. I’m able to apply those tools in all areas of my life, not just when it comes to romantic situations. I’m so grateful I met her. She’s bright, intuitive, supportive, nonjudgmental, optimistic, strong, has a great sense of humor and is able to maintain professionalism while being personable and light hearted. If you found Petra, you found a gem!

Petra is so compassionate and understanding. She gives me goals to work towards and asks all the right questions, which allow me to discover new things about myself in every session. I am so grateful that we were connected through BetterHelp.
