Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shell Freeman. 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.
Shell is a game changer for my mental health! So grateful
Shell is FANTASTIC… I have been so supported by her, and she has helped me to look at issues and feelings in new and constructive ways.
Shell is always very attentive and supportive of me. She calls me on my bad habits and helps me to see the patterns in a way that shows me the balance of me being both an individual and a product of my environment and upbringing. She helps me to be accountable for my actions because of and despite these truths. I learn so much from her after every session.
Shell has taken the time to really get to know me as a person. Even when I’m apprehensive about bringing a topic up, she has a way of making me comfortable and drawing it out of me. She has helped me navigate through new chapters of my life. She gives me things to consider and tools to effectively make decisions. Shell has been an instrumental part on my journey of self love and growth.
Have already gained a lot from Shell's help and will continue to work either.
She’s really good and listens to what I have to say.
Shell is wonderful and a truly amazing guide through my life’s challenges
Shell is extremely amazing. She listens to what I have to say and her advise is always catered to my needs and what my goals are.
Great insight, very understanding, and extremely helpful
Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and kind. I’ve made a lot of progress is a few sessions!
Ms. Shell is a very kind and intuitive therapist. I genuinely feel better about myself and how to propel myself forward into manifestation.
Shell is thoughtful and a great counselor. She pushes you to really look at the things and actions that you are doing.
Mrs. Freeman always responds to the journals that I send to her when I feel there is something to go off of.
I look forward to my meetings with Shell every week. She really listens to detail on what I say or do not say, and she always knows what to say at the perfect time. She has helped me tremendously with all the ups and downs in my life and has been there through so much. I am so grateful for Shell!
She is amazing and really listens to what you are saying. She makes you feel comfortable right from the start and gives it to you straight....very good at what she does!
Shell is a brilliant and intuitive counsellor. It is clear that she knows what she’s talking about and always knows how to approach an issue. I feel safe and comfortable talking to her, which is uncommon for me. I would highly recommend
Full to the brim with empathy, warmness and compassion. Very approachable, with counselling methodology geared towards not only problem solving but also improving the general level of wellbeing! Has helped me tremendously in overcoming hurdles and achieving goals!
