These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Allen Riggs. 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.
I really feel a great connection with Dr. Riggs. He is insightful and helps me to understand things about myself. Very kind and caring as well.

He is very good at listening and trying to understand what is going on. He is very good at directing the conversation and asking you the right questions.
