These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Clark. 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.
Amanda listens and provides specific ways in which I can respond to difficult situations. I never feel rushed or that she is distracted. I always have her full attention. I didn't know what to expect because I've never been in counseling before but am very happy with the experience. It has really helped me resolve conflict and improve my relationship with my wife.

Amanda makes me feel comfortable and at ease; she also makes me feel seen and heard. I appreciate how she relates to me and how relaxed our sessions are...I'm glad we were matched!
