These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shelly Allen. 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.
Shelly is amazing! She takes the time to get to the root of whatever it may be that you're facing, and then helps YOU make a decision confidently. She's been wonderful at helping me through quite a bit so far and we've only been working together for a short time. I look forward to learning all I can from Shelly!

Shelly is so attentive and in tune to what is the deeper issues are. She helps me dig through the layers of why I feel the way I feel, or respond the way I do, then gives me tools that allow me to reframe what I’m feeling or doing. She has helped me so much!
