These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Weyni Williams. 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.
Weyni is a very compassionate and knowledgeable woman. She asks probing questions and encourages time to reflect on them. I feel that she makes sure that I stay focused and has my best interests in mind.

Weyni has been the first counselor I've had in my adult life that I've felt comfortable sharing with completely. She offers practical solutions to combating current and past traumas and is responsive when you reach out to her.
