These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ericka Soto. 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.
Ericka and I have only had one session so far but I have really enjoyed it. She’s great at listening and is very kind. Ericka really made me feel heard and gave me a safe environment to talk about my feeling.
