My therapist is awesome. She is so relatable! She has been through some of the things I i’ve been through so I know she truly understands.

I'd like for lots of people I know to have the opportunity to experience a session with René. I've had therapists in the past but none with her style of connecting on a personal basis. At first it was a little disorienting, more like talking to a friend than a paid professional. Luckily, I'd read another review that suggested sticking with it to see the benefit of her way of relating to her clients and I am glad I did. Her friendly, casual style really helped overcome the gaps in interpersonal communication that are inherent in online conversations. She got to know me, I came to trust her, and we had many wonderful conversations.
I am impressed by René's recall, her ability to connect seemingly disparate topics, and her willingness to meet me in whatever mood I might be in each time we talk. She made a big difference in how I was feeling about myself, my family, and my work. Over our many sessions, she gave me a lot to think about and held the threads of thought together over time. I have really enjoyed working with her and appreciate the improvement over how I was feeling when I first signed up for BetterHelp.

I absolutely love my sessions with Renee. I really wanted a therapist who would direct the conversation while also listening when something comes to mind and she does exactly that. Renee is very easy to have a chat too and we always have a good laugh about something during our sessions too. She will give me new ways to think about things or different ways I can approach challenges which are always super helpfull. Would highly recommend Renee!
