I can’t say enough how helpful Valerie was when I was in need. I’d hit a low point, and didn’t know what to do to help myself get out of there. Valerie and I identified the root issues early on in my sessions, and worked from there to find ways that I could be empowered to take back my mind from my frustration and anger and think clearly again. I now have tools with which to continue working on my own. I feel in control of my emotions, and able to deal with whatever comes my way in a positive and productive way.

Valerie has been very helpful on my healing journey. She’s been very insightful and has given me the perspective I need to accomplish the things that I want to in my life and the confidence to do so. I definitely have found a lot of help in our sessions and figuring out that I’m actually doing pretty decent in life. I’m on the right track and doing the things I wanted to be doing by seeking therapy and she is a person and I hope in some way shape or form is never out of my life.

Written on Sep 19, 2022 after therapy with Valerie for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship issues, self esteem, and anger management
I’m very grateful for Valerie coming into my life. She is so kind, caring, patient, understanding, non-judgmental, and supportive. I felt an instant connection with her. I love that our conversations are two-way instead of one-way. I was able to open up and be vulnerable about my deepest traumas and challenges. Valerie’s knowledge, experiences, and worksheets have been incredibly helpful in becoming the best version of myself.
Written on Sep 17, 2022 after therapy with Valerie for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes
In the first session I had with Valerie, I knew she was the right therapist for me. She made me feel comfortable and was relatable which, I really wanted. She has given me very helpful tools to use when I am feeling like I am about to have an anxiety attack and I use them regularly. I am starting to feel like myself again and I could not have done that without her. I would give her 10 out of 5 stars I could. She deserves so much credit and I would recommend her 1000 times. I look forward to our next session!

Valerie (my BetterHelp counselor) has been the best counseling experience I've had in many, many years.
Do not stay with a counselor that's not a good match or that doesn't help you feel healthier. It's ok to change. I am so glad I did! She gets my struggles, can relate + doesn't preach or lectures. Valerie not only is supportive, she has perspective. Growth + support is very important to me. Wow! Thank you!

Valerie is amazing and helped me in many ways. She is easy going and friendly which helped me to open up. The worksheets and simple tasks to do outside of our sessions were really helpful as well. I wish I could continue our sessions but I can't afford it at this time. I will continue the exercises and practices she taught me as they have been a big part of my progress.

Loved talking with her every session we had! Her worksheets also are very helpful and many of them really helps you think about each question/statement and really help you realize what is healthy and what is unhealthy behavior, and help you to develop healthy habits daily. She really cares about her clients' wellbeing and make sure that they are each doing well mentally, physically, emotionally. I really enjoyed working with her and her approach to holistic psychology.

Written on Aug 23, 2020 after therapy with Valerie for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes
Wow, I do not even know where to begin. I have worked with multiple counselors throughout my life and Valerie is truly one of a kind. It was so easy to build a relationship with her and become vulnerable. She is supportive, patient, accepting, caring, light-hearted, a great listener and so much more. Not only does she guide me through my challenges (mostly anxiety), she is great advice giver on life. She is real, open and understands that everyones life is different and each person has their own struggles, but we may overcome them in time. She is a wonderful cheerleader and reminds me to celebrate progress, no matter how small. With her help I have been able to develop techniques that help me better manage my anxiety, become mindful and simply just be thankful for the gift of life. Although Valerie is my counselor, I also consider her to be a good friend. She is passionate about her work, which encourages me to someday be able to help others as she has helped me. There is so much more I could say about Valerie, but I will leave it at that. If you need a counselor, friend, life supporter or simply just someone, she will be there for you and always will be. As she has told me, "this too shall pass."
