Christina is a kind, thoughtful and empathetic person..which translates directly into our sessions. I find that she asks thoughtful questions that steer me towards what I should be thinking about, and meets my failings with empathy and understanding. I find that even with our short time together, we have managed to build trust and I value that deeply. She makes sure that my homework is focused and not overwhelming in its volume. I have already stated implementing grounding techniques that have helped me reduce my anxiety in an incredibly stressful time. I am very grateful that we were paired together and I look forward to growing from our sessions.

Dr. Rudawski is the only real cheerleader I have in my life who isn't first thinking about herself. She regularly checks in on me to see how I am doing. No one else does that forme. She also gives me thoughtful exercises to do which really get me both thinking and feeling, which lead me to new insights about myself, my inner workings, and deeper understanding. Her calm, yet steadfast demeanor is just the right kind of emotional safety net I need to feel and be better. I am grateful I found her. BetterHelp has turned out much better than I expected. Thank you!

Dr. Rudawski has been of great help so far even after only two sessions. She has helped me take a mindful of stressors that became overwhelming as a whole and helped me to separate and organize my thoughts so each one thing didn’t feel as stressful as all of them together. She has also shown me ways to deal with my emotions when they become too much to handle in the moment and I am practicing them. Dr. Rudawski is easy to talk to and seems to relate to issues I’m having and she presents good takes on my issues giving me other ways of looking at things, which I find helpful. I’m looking forward to continuing this journey with her and taking control of my anxiety and stress to hopefully avoid becoming overwhelmed again.

Dr. Rudawski is deeply compassionate & professional in equal measure, I instantly felt at ease in her presence, I trusted her immediately and therefore have been and am still able to speak openly about that which I haven’t had to opportunity to speak of properly before. After only our second appointment I felt a noticeable difference in my sleep and I also felt a reduction in self-doubt which has been a demon that has attached itself to me for a long time. So, in short, I am feeling relief already, I know there is lots more deep work to do but I realise that seeking & finding professional help of this standard is a necessary step in my growth & healing. I am very grateful for this support and the direction it is allowing me to go in.
