Written on Dec 20, 2022 after therapy with Frankie for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, self esteem, and coaching

When I joined, I was paired with a therapist who was exactly what I asked for; which wasn’t what I needed! I switched them out after one session after much consideration. I reduced my criteria to the core basics and let BetterHelp recommend more therapists to me. On the list, Frankie McKelvin stood out to me and I’m so glad I took the chance! I’m a self reliant person who needs a good listener; someone who will ask the correct questions and give straight answers that lead to self discovery and healing. I believe that is the true point of therapy; no one can fix your past but through venting and gaining helpful guidance, it should unlock ways to move forward and I believe after just two sessions that is what Frankie is able to do for me.
