Excellent therapist who really cares for his clients. Listened very well and always has really good advice. I would recommend to anybody that had the same problems as me, and I’m sure he can help others with different problems as well.

This is my first time in therapy for my mental health. I am thankful for getting paired with Sergio as my therapist. He was attentive, allowed me to talk as much as I needed to about my situation and offered me advice I haven't necessarily gotten elsewhere from friends and family. I've still got a journey ahead of me, but Sergio definitely helped expedite the process for me to get me back on my feet. I definitely recommend Sergio if you are using BetterHelp. Thanks again Sergio.
