These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Bette Smyth. 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.
Dr Smyth is genuinely supportive and knowledgeable in her work with me and she listens to my concerns with compassion. She makes me feel completely comfortable and safe both during and between sessions by checking in with me when she hasn’t heard from me. With Dr Smyth I feel like I need never completely alone in the world no matter how my relationships are going.
