Garrick is very patient, which is excellent for me because I do not often feel comfortable sharing feelings or thought, regardless if it’s a therapist or not. But talks with Garrick are very calming and relieving. He is very good at his job.

Garrick has been a huge asset in getting me out of a mid-life slump and moving me in the right direction. I look forward to the time with him, and feel like he has the right mix of listening and advising. I also appreciate his willingness to share videos to cover some of the basics elements of CBT, I'm able to come back and review them at a later time to make sure the learnings stick

Dr. G has been such a blessing in my life during one of the most tragic and heartbreaking times in my family. He has helped me find ways to manage my grief, stress, anxiety, and depression and I’m so thankful for the tools I’m gaining. He knows what he is doing and how to deliver his message in a non condescending way and he helps me understand my feelings and emotions. I’m very grateful to BetterHelp but even more so to you Dr. G. You get it!
