These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tamara Coleman. 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.
Excellent experience. Very thoughtful and engaging approach.

I was returning to therapy after many years of depression and anxiety. Due to previous experiences I was skeptical about finding a good match and making any progress. After one session with Tamara I felt understood and hopeful. Tamara speaks to and treats me with respect. I can count on her gentle but firm guidance. She has a way of pulling thoughts and feelings out of me that lead to greater insights about myself. Often our sessions are followed by recommended exercises to do, read, view, or listen to--all of which lead to growth and greater self-understanding. What more could anyone ask? I am so appreciative of these few months working with Tamara Coleman and value what she has helped me learn.
