These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Alyssa “Petersen” Domel. 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 was pretty nervous to start with yet another new therapist, especially one solely online. Alyssa has made me feel so comfortable in opening up and talking about what’s going on in my life. She offers a variety of ways to meet as well which makes it even easier for me to open up. I would highly recommend Alyssa to anyone new to therapy, or even looking for a better therapist.

Alyssa is wonderful! She is respectful, truly listens and I feel seen. It’s only been a few short weeks but with her help, I’m getting better each day. Highly recommend her!

Alyssa is a great listener and she's very patient. She helps to echo and identify my feelings in a way that seems to make them more manageable.

Alyssa had been amazing to work with. She responds quickly to messages and even responds to my shared journal entries. She goes out of her way to make sure there's appointments available to accommodate my schedule. I would highly recommend Alyssa to anyone.
