These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tsz Yan Elizabeth Yau. 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.
Elizabeth has been amazing, she's really helped me process childhood trauma that affects me late into my adulthood. She has used multiple techniques and adapts each session based on how successful the techniques are going. She's been very personable, and a true expert in the field. I've had quite a few therapist over the years, but she is by far the one I've had most success with.

She's insightful, understanding. She's empathetic. I found her at a dark place in my life and honestly, she's someone I will keep coming back to. Love her. Thank you Liz, for all the support

Liz, to me, feels like that good friend you want to share your troubles with, she always understand and has something of value to add or an extra insight, given when needed. I've never felt so at ease with a therapist as i do with Liz.
