These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tania Valente. 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.
I highly recommend Tania. She is friendly and easy to talk to, yet respects me and my decisions, and is always very supportive. She has seen me go through my ups and downs and I always come out of her sessions feeling that I was able to address the issues that has been on my mind. She is sex positive and understands polyamory, and does not judge me for being different. I think of her as an invaluable partner in maintaining my mental health.

Tania is a wonderful listener and really great at asking the sort of questions that open one up to answering in an honest and clear way. I'm feeling so much better for the experience of working with Tania, in working me out. It is a blessing to have someone walk with you and gently guide you as you walk through challenging times.
