Dennis is hands-down the best therapist I've ever had! He really does listen! Treatment is individualized, according to my specific needs. Especially when I'm having a bad day, it's always easy to let it all hang out, to be me — warts and all! ;)

Dr. Smith really listens. If suffers from any type of trauma or are divorced, this is the guy for you. He understands where women are coming from and provides great resources.

Dennis has been an awesome response for my needs. I was very overwhelmed and depressed when I started this journey and not really a person who thought therapy would help but I have been very happy with the outcome. Dennis not only gave me the time I needed but also the tools, patience and was very understanding of my situation. Better Help and Dennis have changed my outlook for the better!

Mr. Smith is hands down one of the best people I have met in a very long time. His empathy, yet realness, has helped me achieve the initial steps towards self improvement/confidence/betterment. He is a real HERO!
