These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amy Donahue. 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.
First, this is my only experience with such therapy but I am so grateful for the opportunity to benefit from Ms Amy Donahue’s professional expertise and her sincere efforts to help me. I “feel” a commitment on her part to see me successful in defeating my alcohol addiction and finding more healthy ways to cope with the stress in my life.
