These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Yolanda Villa. 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.
Yolanda is so easy to talk to. She works to see things through my perspective and she challenges me when she sees inconsistencies in my values vs. my actions. She is a safe place to land (she knows how important that is to me!). Safe enough that I challenge her back when I think she has misunderstood me or interpreted my words differently from what I meant. She doesn't come across as lofty or clinical. She is real. I am very thankful for Yolanda.

Yolanda is thoughtful, patient and insightful. She does a great job of picking up on subtle body language cues and asks questions that prompt great conversation and self exploration. She urges me to cast my gaze forward and gives me tools to help handle the issues we talk about during our sessions

she is amazing and truly tries to understand me! She comes from different angles and helps me think differently. She also is an outstanding match, she’s from my home town, religious/spirituality similarities
