These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Charity Sophus. 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 have only been meeting with Charity Sophus for a few weeks and I have already began to see improvements. She patiently allows me to ramble and never talks over me. She is truly a treasure to talk to.

Charity makes me feel heard and really gives me the silver lining I fail to see. I am so glad she is in my life right now.

I love working with Charity Sophus! Mrs. Sophus is diverse in her practice and responds to my many needs in therapy. She has found ways to address many of the things I want to work on and I feel that she would do everything she can to help me. Mrs. Sophus meets me wherever I am in my week and sends me materials that help me stay on track. I greatly appreciate what consistent communication and counseling have done for me and would definitely recommend Mrs. Charity Sophus!
