Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ryan Foley. 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.
Ryan is down to earth, relaxed and has a great vibe. I really appreciate that he is open to discussing anything I want, but he still reminds me of our goals and things we can focus on. I was nervous about doing therapy all via zoom, but so far I have really liked it.

Really enjoy speaking with him He has helped me with a few of his suggestions We have only met twice so far so we are still in the getting to know you stage I love the fact he is much younger than me and shares his opinions of the world from a different point of view at times. Really glad to meet with him and look forward to our sessions

It's pretty wild that my first therapist on Better Help was exactly the kind of person I was hoping he/she would be. I'm a pretty casual person and that's something I was looking for, at least to some degree in my therapist, while also being professional, kind and supportive. It has been nothing but a positive experience and journey so far with Ryan.
