These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sarina Chawla. 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.
The first session was great but after that I really just felt like Sarina was watching the clock. I also picked up on a very non chalant, almost uninterested vibe from her. I never felt comfortable coming back.

Sarina is amazing and caring! She challenges you with kindness and compassion. I only wish her sessions were longer than 30 minutes and that she were more available.
