These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Raquel Gaston. 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.
Raquel has been great in helping me get to the bottom of why things are making me emotional and finding ways to reshape how I think that work instead of just giving a rational explanation that doesn't want to sink in fully. She is really compassionate, and does a great job tailoring our sessions to be the most useful, including switching things up if something unexpected happens that I am having trouble with. If I don't have a particular thing bothering me that week that takes up most of the session, she helps me work on long term goals to improve my mental health. I'm really glad that she is willing to do chat sessions so that sometimes I can take a break from trying to listen and comprehend spoken word, because it can really wear me out sometimes to listen carefully and retain information at the same time.
