These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sarah Bentley . 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.
We've only done one session so far, which was a "get to know you" type of situation. She seems nice, shes attentive and listens well.
