Wendy is a great active listener, and has been very helpful in terms of talking about/looking at things and also being proactive about what I can do to help myself.

Wendy is the best therapist I have ever had by a long margin. I have tried several therapists throughout my life and Wendy is the first one that I feel truly hears me, and understands. She is compassionate, realistic, grounded, well-informed, and contributes meaningfully to the conversation. I feel very lucky to have been matched with her on betterhelp and only wish I had met her years earlier.
