These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Valerie Girod. 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’ve only just started seeing Valerie Girod, but she has already changed my life in ways I didn’t expect. Opening up about my MST and PTSD has always felt impossible, yet she created a space where I finally feel safe, understood, and not alone. Her compassion, patience, and warmth have helped me talk about things I’ve carried in silence for years.
I’m truly grateful for her. For the first time, I feel hope—real hope—that healing is possible.
