These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Alexandra Branagan. 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.
Dr. Alexa has been an excellent support for me as I transitioned from full-time worker to part-time worker/retired person. Exercises were designed specifically for me and the work I needed to do to learn how to incorporate coping mechanisms and identify messages that I had for my past that were no longer helpful.

I love that I can communicate with her outside of the sessions as well. She responds quickly as well as she sends me encouraging messages throughout the week.
