These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Peter Miller. 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.
First couple sessions have been clarifying, calming, and helping me to stay strong and plan how to get out of the abusive relationship I am in. My favorite thing so far is that he listens attentively and doesn't seem scripted whatsoever. He stays in the moment with you and give his full attention. When he has responded, it's been thought provoking to me in great ways that help me to untangle the mess I'm currently in.

I very much enjoy my sessions with Peter. He is open and honest about his own experiences in a way that feels relatable and relevant to my experiences (even though they obviously aren't the same) which helps me feel less alone and hopeless regarding resolutions or overcoming. He listens well and brings things back to Christ, which is important to me. I never feel rushed or put off. I highly recommend working with him!

He seems very kind. Not impatient in the least. I have a busy schedule, do I haven't been able to engage like I want, but he's been very accommodating.
