These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Debra Sandler. 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.
She is very nice and attentive and listens to me and gives me advise on how to handle certain situations.
