My experience with my first therapist was unpleasant because I felt like a spectacle, rather than receiving the support I needed to cope with my grief. However, Robert has been incredible, providing me with a safe and understanding space to work through my struggles.

Robert is an excellent therapist. He listens to you, navigates the conversations very well, even though we have a significant age gap he is still very relatable. After two sessions he’s already been a game changer for me. I look forward to continuing to work with him to achieve my goals.

Robert has helped me begin a journey that I’ve needed some guidance on for a long time. I appreciate his soft, yet assertive approach to helping me recognize patterns, and his willingness to listen, understand, and remember what you share with him. I’m very grateful for this, I was having a really hard time finding a consistent therapist before this

Robert was awesome to talk with. He challenged me to look beyond my narrow thinking and broaden it. Learned to accept life as it happens and learned the understanding of what I have actual control of. His recommendations and gentle nudges in the right direction were invaluable.
I would recommend him greatly, he is a definite asset and shining star with BetterHelp and his profession.

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!
