These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Desiree Malam. 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.
Desiree was the first person, in a long time to really hear me. I was validated for the difficulties I was struggling with. She was also real with me. No artificial positive stuff--real discussion and empathy to help me work through some thinking errors.
