These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Prof. Christie Byrd. 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.
Professor Byrd is an amazing listener and doesn’t sugar coat things for clients, which I found the most helpful.
