These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sonya Martinez. 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.
She really listens to me and gives me great advice that I have been following to make me a better person and see the world a bit differently.

Sonya is a great listener and is good at sharing her advice directly once she has listened well. To me, being heard is a large part of getting help. Sonya is gentle and non-judgmental, while still offering solid advice. I feel confident and have been able to make a difference in my life with her advice and insights.

She makes it easy to talk to and she helps me see things I couldn’t see myself or helps me understand why I feel the way I do. She is amazing.

Sonya is so great! She is an excellent listener, and validates my experiences while also helping me to recognize how my own emotions can play a part in them. She is very understanding, and it feels less like a therapy session, and more like talking with a friend. Our sessions have been eye-opening and extremely beneficial, and I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a relaxed and comfortable setting,
