These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Samantha Graham-Douglas. 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.
I was hesitant about using a virtual therapy platform. However, Samantha has really shown me that thiabis exactly what I needed. A safe place to put all of my thoughts. A safe person who can hold them alongside me and guide me on not just my mental health journey but also my spiritual journey. I believe she has helped me grow closer to my God and His Creation - myself and my body.

Samantha has helped me through the most difficult time in my life. She has helped me better understand myself and to identify the reason of why I feel the way I do. She has provided constructive ways to actively work on things like positive self-talk, breathing exercises and ways to boost self -esteem/confidence. She's a great listener and I highly recommend!
