I was not confident that I would be matched with the “right” therapist right away but I knew after my first session with Vanessa that she was a great fit for me. She is so kind, understanding, smart, and I immediately felt comfortable opening up to her. I always look forward to our sessions.

Incredibly empathetic, always clocks on to my facial expressions or body language changes and accommodates that. Very supportive, unbelievably smart in a lot of areas that are necessary for therapy, highly recommend.

It’s hard to write a review for someone who has such an uplifting and positive impact on your live and mental well-being. She cares, she’s authentic, she’s real, and her methods work. I couldn’t recommend Vanessa more. I’m forever grateful to her!

Betterhelp is really on of the best decisions if not the best decison I have made
Investing in yourself and in your well being can only go right.
I am so gratefull to have such an amazing therapist like Vanessa.
Vanessa is empathetic therapist, I love how authentic and guiding she is
and how she just creates a space where you feel safe to open up without judgment
I think thats very important going on such a vulnerable journey
When I came to betterhelp I was so burnt out and felt so drained and just fed up but it´s only been a few weeks and I must say I feel a lot calmer and much more energetic and I am excited to see where this jounrey will take me

I am very happy with the Therapist given to me.
I feel that Vanessa understands me in a deep level, in the spam of 3 weeks I have been able to let go of my nervous vocal ticks which has been a great problem of mine for a while now. I am looking forward to working with her for a long time.

My therapist Vanessa.T had been absolutely wonderful and helped me work through some relationship breakup issues I was struggling with but overall self belief and confidence work. She's been amazing and I will miss my sessions with her.

I have been going to therapy since I was 16y/o. I am 31y/o now and for the first time, I feel I have found a therapist who actually allows the patients to process uncomfortable emotions and creates space where you feel comfortable and supported to open up. Instead forcing you to move forward without reflection. Vanessa understands the importance of investigating the cause, identifying, reflecting and allowing blocked emotions to be expressed. So thankful I finally found someone who understands and can help guide me. You are a gem.

Vanessa has been hands-on. She radiates a type of warmth that will really make you feel safe even during your most vulnerable sessions. I’m so glad I was matched with her.

Vanessa is not just a therapist but a confidante and a friend. She allows you to be introspective and challenge your views and thoughts in innovative and even creative ways. She’s helped me learn things about myself that I didn’t even knew I had within me ultimately allowing me to live a more self-conscious and fulfilled life overall. Highly recommend!

Vanessa has been amazing from day one. She clearly thrives in this role, helping people to overcome large childhood traumas and understanding themselves as a result of these longterm traumas. I've discovered a lot about myself in the past six months we've been working together and it's changed my life and relationship with myself immeasurably.

I have been seeing Vanessa for just over 5 months now. She has been amazing and I'm so glad I chose her to help me through my recovery. She is an excellant therapist. I always leave feeling hopeful after each session even if it's been a hard one. I've tried a few therapists and Vanessa is the best one I've had by far. She's empathetic, knowledgeable and supportive. Vanessa is kind and understanding but will push you when you need it. She understands that one approach doesn't work for everyone and is willing to adapt her methods to what you need at that time. I would highly recommend working with her for help with trauma, depression and anxiety disorders.

Vanessa has been with me from the very beginning since I joined BetterHelp. She has been so supportive and insightful with what she has to offer as a professional. Taking the first step into therapy was daunting for me and she’s made me feel so uplifted after each session as we unpacked my feelings, thought processes and patterns.

Vanessa is a wonderful woman who has genuinely helped me through things I thought couldn’t be helped. She’s extremely patient, a good listener, and very considerate. Anyone that is shy or struggles with opening up will have a good time with her.

I turned to Better Help for support after experiencing an episode of panic attacks and anxiety triggered by Covid19. I was paired up with Vanessa who turned out to be a very skilled and supportive therapist.
Vanessa is a great listener, she always pays attention to what I am telling her and reacts in a very sensitive and reassuring way.
She was always on time for sessions and was very flexible about the topic - I could choose what I wanted to bring to session or she would propose interesting and stimulating exercises to do in order to improve my well-being.
I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone seeking help and support or just trying to enhance their well-being and mental health.
Written on Mar 08, 2023 after therapy with Vanessa for 3 months on issues concerning depression, and stress, anxiety
I would recommend Vanessa to any of my family/friends - she made me feel heard and valued from the start. Vanessa gave me effective practical tools to deal with the everyday challenges. She also made me feel safe, even via video, to talk about my trauma and my fears without judgement or being patronised - she gave me help that felt tailored to me and my philosophies. Straight talking and full of understanding, thank you!

Vanessa is great. She's been very understanding in helping me with breaking the news to my family that I'm transitioning. I was worried that a therapist I couldn't choose beforehand might not be trans positive, but Vanessa has been endlessly supportive. Even when I didn't really know what to talk about, she helped me ask myself some questions. Talking to Vanessa is kind of like giving myself permission to open doors I didn't want to look at and peek behind them.
