People come to counseling for many different reasons. For you, it may be an unresolved past issue, a current relationship problem, a clearly defined challenge or an undiscovered struggle. Regardless of your reasons, you should be proud of yourself for taking that step to begin therapy. Counseling should be a confidential, safe place
for people to receive support, examine challenges and obstacles, explore relationships, reduce stress, facilitate healing, and discover a path to a meaningful and satisfying life. I look forward to helping you on that journey!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Christina Reed. 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.
So far my experience with Christina has been brief but unexpectedly illuminating. I have yet to learn whether this is good or not, but I trust Christina more than most. I am grateful for her patience, listening ability, and depth of experience.

Christina has been helpful in listening to my concerns and looking at situations from different perspectives. It's allowed me to have several revelations about myself and be more forgiving of past mistakes. I appreciate her calm demeanor and insightful questions.
