Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Robert Payne. 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.

Even after the first session, I already feel I have been aided in taking the first steps to healing. Robert is direct, honest, and understanding; all of these are qualities that a therapist must have. I would recommend him to any of my friends, as I would recommend betterhelp.

Although I have only had one session with Robert, he has already cut to what seems to be the core of one of the things that brought me to this website in the first place. I really look forward to further sessions as I feel I will greatly benefit from Roberts support.

I was grateful to have Robert as my therapist for the first time I reached out for therapy service. 4 weeks with him was excellent, we went through a different range of emotions. He listens and encourages me to share and talk about my problems. I had depression due to breaking up with my boyfriend and I thought I was gonna die. I'm so lucky that Robert helped me through one of my darkest times. He is always ready to reply to every one of my messages and talking to him makes time fly. I always feel better after every session. I can see I change a lot throughout four sessions with him. He doesn't sugarcoat anything, I feel comfortable talking to him. I believe his mission in life is to help people like me get through their darkest times and show them life is beautiful. Thank you so much for everything! I am always grateful to Robert and BetterHelp for giving this online support. Thank you very much!
