These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Parulski. 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 embodies what you want in a therapist - someone who listens actively and empathetically, asks appropriate questions that require thoughtful responses, demonstrates an interest in moving forward with solving problems and doesn't tolerate dishonest or self-defeating excuses. I enjoy our sessions very much and feel like progress is already being made. Highly recommended.

Therapy was relatively new to me and I was a bit nervous of feeling judged at first, but Amanda made me feel comfortable and was really supportive in helping me accomplish my therapy goals! I would recommend her to anyone seeking help!

I’ve seen many therapists, but don’t always connect the same way that I do with Amanda. I feel she is knowledgeable and has significantly helped me through quite a few things. I look forward to continuing to work with her and highly recommend her to others as well.
