Hattie was the second therapist on Betterhelp since I didn't have the best click with my first one and I remember feeling excited after our first chat. I liked that Hattie listened but also asserted what she thought with reason even if it was perhaps not what you wanted or expected to hear. But this honesty made me confident she would be honest about her input and she wouldn't coddle me and it also meant that I could trust her words. If I did feel anything negative from the sessions I felt like I could ask her about it and discuss it and be heard. I think she was very detailed and made notes from each session so she was trying to seeing overarching patterns and spoke of her expertise and care. Thank you Hattie for journeying with me and starting what I feel a good secure journey for the next and the next. My first therapist experience and I would say I recommend therapy and I recommend Hattie.

Dr. Hagans is everything our community needs and more. Having gone through many counselors on here and unable to speak to them, this has been the best experience by far. She is a woman of faith, she listens, and offers great advice.

Don’t hold back anything because that’s how you’ll get the best help possible. I suffer through many challenges of trauma that affects my life every day but she gives me a better perception without any judgement. She is patient and kind as well so thank you Dr. Hagans and Better help.
