These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Chris Whitwood. 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.
Chris is a very thoughtful, philosophically-minded, intelligent, and very funny British man who has helped me a lot in processing life and working on things about myself that I would like to understand better. Can't recommend him enough, especially to men who want to dig deep into their place in the world.

Chris calmly listens while I voice the problems Im encountering. He can help me to see things I may have missed as I was fixated on a seperate issue, he points out ways I could help myselt if a similar issue arose again and he has ways of making me feel heard at all times. He has a gentle tone and never do I feel like anything is too much to talk about with him. Hes helping me to feel better

I have been working with Chris for several months now and have really enjoyed the experience. He's offered great advice and techniques as well as a safe space to vent. It's clear he not only understands people but also the science behind how or why we act in certain ways. Looking forward to continuing to work with, Chris and I would highly recommend him as a therapist.

Ive found Chris's guidance and support incredible over the last 4 months or so, he's given me the space and support to work through what ive needed and the nudge in the right direction for me to understand and help myself. I feel so much better having spent time in Chris's company and gone from dreading the thought of doing therapy to really enjoying the process and our discussions. Thank you Chris!
