Hello I am Dr. Kornegay and I am currently taking clients that are serious about therapy and not just hopping around from therapist to the next. I understand we need to find the right fit but please be respectful in how you do it, simply tell the therapist your plans and concerns instead of just switching.
Please note that the first session with me is considered an intake session which means we discover your needs in therapy, goals and come up with a treatment plan, then schedule for follow-ups and duration.
However, if you are looking for a pocket therapist, one that you can just text when you run into a problem and expect them to tell you what to do, I do not offer that. I offer real therapy, working through your issues, mood dysregulation, making healthy changes.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sophia Kornegay. 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.
Very straight forward therapist, she listens to what you need and create a treatment plan based off of that, very collaborative with the patient. I love it!
