Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Allen Appiah-Boateng. 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. Boateng has been very professional and made insightful connections between my multiple concerns and has helped me view things from multiple perspectives that help me understand and think through my current challenges better. I appreciate the fact that he is a Christian and is able to relate with me on that level as well.

My time with Allen changed me as a person, and I’m better for it. I’ll always appreciate the work we did together.

So comfortable to talk to

Written on Aug 16, 2024 after therapy with Allen for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, sleeping disorders, parenting issues, self esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, coaching, and adhd

After three sessions, I have the sense Allen is a consummate professional and one who is capable of delving into deep topics, without fear and with good focus and keeping it comfortable but capable.

Dr. Allen is honestly the best person to talk to about anything going on in your life. He's super supportive and non-judgmental, and even though that's what you'd expect, I haven't found anyone I could relate to as well as him before.

Right from the first session, I felt comfortable sharing stuff about my life, which was a huge relief. Sometimes, when I feel overwhelmed, having someone like him to talk to has been amazing because at first I would struggle finding who to run to with my stress.
Over the past four months, I have felt more heard than I have ever been in most of my adult life.

Dr. Allen doesn't just listen; he gives me real life advice to help me handle my challenges better. I don't feel like I'm talking to a robot in a chair or someone who is just paid to be there, I truly believe he is Godsent. He is consistently supportive and genuinely cares, which makes me feel understood, seen and valued.

He is definitely someone to talk to! !

As we have worked together Allen has both intently listened to my concerns and actively challenged me to grow via thoughtful introspection, which is resulting in immediately impactful progress.
