These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Diane Ritchie. 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.
I love working with Diane. She listens and I feel like she makes an effort to connect with me on my level. Being new to therapy I feel like she's been very helpful letting me find my own way into the process.

Diane is caring and professional. She has had some poignant insights that have helped me reframe how I’m thinking about things.
