When I made my selections with BetterHelp in terms of what I needed in a counselor, I feel Damara was exactly that. It was so important to me that I had not just clinical, but spiritual advice from a professional. This is truly a gift that Damara has...she provides such a wonderful balance of both. I have learned many things about myself in my time with her. I am growing psychologically and spiritually more mature. I am very happy with time with her, the BetterHelp platform, and the amount for the services. It is money and time well spent and the best counseling I have had in my life.

Damara is amazing! She's caring, wonderful, thoughtful, and she really helps. I was struggling so bad and I feel like a new person already. I feel blessed that she came into my life! She sends resources and exercises to do between appointments. You can feel that she has a good soul from the second she says hello. She really cares and she gives you the best level of therapy you can get. I would recommend her to anyone!

I've only had a few sessions with Damara so far but from the beginning she was very professional and willing to listen and try to identify the root of my problems. I can't begin to thank her enough for helping me through such a hard time. I wish I could talk to her every single day.

Damara is wonderful to work with. She creates a safe and comfortable setting and is very easy to talk to. Damara asks insightful questions to elicit deeper processing. Her cat even cofacilitates from time to time! I definitely recommend Damara as a counselor.
