These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Carlie Sherman. 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.
I cannot recommend Carlie Sherman highly enough. As a 45-year-old who was never properly equipped to understand or manage ADHD, I’ve spent much of my life grappling with challenges I didn’t fully understand. Carlie Sherman has been instrumental in helping me untangle the impact ADHD has had on my life and providing tools to move forward.
What sets her apart is her deep understanding of neurodiversity coupled with a no-nonsense approach. She see through my excuses and gently but firmly challenge me to think differently. Her insight and compassion create a safe space for growth and ensures I stay accountable.

Carlie is great, she helped me shed toxic things from my life. Always listening and finding the best ways to help me and my needs and not trying to compare me to other clients. I don't feel judged and it's definitely an open space. I have been with her since the beginning of the year and I feel so much better especially with her help.

Carli has been instrumental in helping me to work through some longstanding behavioral issues that have been having negative effects on myself and the people close to me. She has provided me with excellent insight into why I am the way I am, as well as with practical advice about things to do in order to achieve the personal results I am searching for. I've never felt an ounce of judgement from her, only a deep desire to help as much as she is able. I can truly say that I feel better about where I'm at in life, and most of that positive change is thanks to Carli.
