These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sheila Sutherland. 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 have had one session with Sheila. I like that she listened intently. She also gave me some "homework" and/or takeaways to help me. I will continue to meet with her. Highly recommend.
