I started speaking to Beverly during a difficult period in my life: I was about to turn 30, had just gotten out of a 5 year relationship and was figuring out other parts of life. She was incredibly helpful in figuring out the next part of my life, which I am more equipped to make the most of. She is very attentive and responds promptly (with compassion). She was also helpful in helping me figure out what mistakes I made, and was able to help on a wide variety of issues.

I haven't been working with Beverly for very long, but so far, she has been so wonderful! She is a great communicator and has a great energy about her that makes me feel comfortable opening up with her.

Beverly has been amazing. I must say over the years I’ve had numerous counselors, and she is the first person who hasn’t come back to me with “well what do you think.” She had offered tools!

I love Beverly! She is a very kind, understanding and supportive experienced therapist that I have ever had. I have never felt as connected and comfortable as I am with Beverly. She is always considerate of my situation and always give it to me as she sees it which is a good thing as I was pretty much in denial of my situation when I first approached her. She helped me rebuilt my life and I can't thank her enough. Highly recommended!

I am new to counseling and Beverly and I have not been working long together. I have to say that I am beyond thankful of her advice so far, and also feel like she responds quickly. I love having a counselor that I can write back and forth with, and not necessarily have to put an hour aside in my day to get some advice. I am however, very excited to schedule a video or chat session!

Written on Sep 11, 2018 after therapy with Beverly for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, sleeping, and self esteem

I started counseling with Beverly and was happy to work with someone who shared experiences with me and was willing to open up about it how she dealt with that. I automatically felt less alone. After a few weeks of avoiding counseling I suffered a spike in my issues and messaged her multiple times a day with worries and she always responded back with kindness and reassurance. She lets me take my time and go over the same thing 10 times to reassure me, but also gives me techniques and skills to reassure myself. She explains everything so I can better believe it and it will work. She accepts my wants and dislikes and works with them to find a plan for me. Amazing and anyone who gets to talk with her is lucky!

She provided a fresh perspective and warm, caring support while also pushing me to think differently. I really found it helpful that she had a number of really specific suggestions, and seemed to really understand where I was coming from. She is warm and nurturing and all around fantastic to connect with. In all honesty, half of what helped so much was just having someone so kind and caring to talk to, and she is very skilled in what she does.

Written on Aug 18, 2018 after therapy with Beverly for 5 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, and grief

If you're looking for a counselor who is incredibly kind, empathetic, experienced, and genuinely addresses all your concerns without skimming over issues, then I highly recommend Beverly. Beverly is a great listener when you need an understanding ear, and she will also provide little activities and exercises to help you along the way. She quickly identifies what your underlying concerns are and will guide you and offer a fresh perspective. Beverly is also incredibly open-minded so you can approach her with any topic and feel accepted and welcomed. She has an in-depth understanding of various spiritual practices and can help with trauma in this field, and also with connecting you to your personal truth. What I really love about counseling with Beverly is that she empowers YOU. There's the proverb that goes: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." Well, Beverly is the kind of counselor who will teach you how to fish!

Written on Jul 14, 2018 after therapy with Beverly for 10 months on issues concerning trauma and abuse

Beverly is outstanding. She is not only accepting of all walks of life, but genuinely encourages and advocates for each patient. Nothing surprises her, gets a rise out of her, or upsets her. Beverly is sure in who she is, which is an underdeveloped trait in the counseling community. Her peace and assurance are infectious. She is just as happy discussing your breakfast that morning as she is your trauma. Beverly pulls from both personal and professional experiences which aid in her being a phenomenally well rounded therapist. Though I have only been with her a month and we have a long way to go, there is a hope now that I didn't have before "meeting" her. Grateful for her!

Beverly believes in a holistic approach by changing patterns in your life which takes a lot of practice and reminders. I appreciate the exercises she gives me and the ability to guide my own therapy and what I would like to discuss. This is my first time trying therapy, but I've found it to be overall positive and wish I had the time and commitment to work more with Beverly.

I just wanted to let you know that Beverly is a great counselor! She really helped my husband and I work through some difficult issues and mend our marriage. She's pleasant and intuitive. I've had a lot of therapy in my life and I would say she's one of the very best. My husband is not a fan of therapy but he liked Beverly as well which says alot about her. Thank you for providing such a great service.

I love Beverly Rivard - during a particularly stressful week, with little time to seek support or solutions, the idea popped into my head: "Skype Therapy." Although we communicate through this platform, Beverly has patiently adapted to my particular needs and style - I'm an MD and I needed some confidential emotional support. She has been thorough, specific, and it's obvious to me that she actually reads the long emails I write - I'm so impressed. I recommend Beverly to anyone looking for and intelligent, compassionate, and responsive therapist.

I couldn't have asked for anything better than to be matched with a counselor such as Beverly Rivard. She is very sensitive and caring, and she respects your difficulties, be it about the time that you need to take before accepting to address some problems, or be it about other things. Coming from a non-English speaking country, I am not always very precise about the things I want to talk about, and she has been very understanding of this and it's very clear that she's used to interacting with people from different cultures. She makes you feel accepted.

Beverly has helped me more than most of my previous therapists in short period of time. The BetterHelp model works for me as I can send or compose messages when I please, and don't have to book appointments to wait days. I can write my thoughts sporadically and send messages when required.

Beverly listens to me and responds quickly. So far I am truly pleased with the help.

Thank you

Beverly is an excellent listener. Sometimes I feel like my problems are very minor and that my successes are very small, but she's so encouraging about everything.

I happened to find this website when I was very anxious and worried about my declining state of well being. Luckily, I was matched with Beverly Rivard and just after a few letters to each other I started to feel much better. Beverly understood right away the underlying issues I was having and her kind and gentle words of wisdom and support stayed in my mind that I continue to repeat to myself when I am starting to feel down. Her responses are prompt and very helpful. She addresses every single thing you write to her and responds with helpful tips to get you away from that dark place. I couldn't be happier with my match through BetterHelp. Thank you, Beverly!

Written on Oct 29, 2016 after therapy with Beverly for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, self esteem, and career

Beverly is exceptionally adept at picking up on who I am as a person, and as a result is able to render assistance fairly quickly; which is something I needed personally to provide some hope that life wasn't really as confusing, and I wasn't nearly as powerless as I had believed.

Identifying my primary obstacles to piece and hapiness and communicating to me that I did not have to wait passively for a better world to present itself to me, and instead have the power to make changes myself.

While I have just begun working on the logistics to make those changes, it is already clear that the Beverly's counsel in the area may be one of her greatest strengths.

I would highly reccomend Beverly as an on-line counselor, because not only does she possess the skills to provide quality services, but she is a very good communicator via written word.
