These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Uzma Ahmad. 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’m very excited to be working with Uzma. I’ve made big progress in working with her in a short time. She’s very informative, teaching me new things that I didn’t know. She’s patient, takes her time explaining things and wants to make sure you understand. She’s very supportive and encourages you too. I’m very glad I found her and get to work with her.
