These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for James Salas. 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.
As a professional psychotherapist, sometimes part of our self-care is attending therapy. I could tell from the outset that James is a consummate professional with ample experience. Simply put, he's just awesome — literally a "therapist's therapist." You can't do better than him.

Mr. James Salas has been amazing so far. I have had him as my therapist for about a month now and he has already helped me notice quite a few of my behavioral and thought patterns. As a biological female, I have really appreciated how he has always made me feel safe and comfortable during video sessions. I am excited for what more I can discover on this journey with him :)

James has been so helpful in my therapy sessions. He is very good at listening and asks all the right questions. I feel that all of our conversations are very engaging and not one sided.
So happy to have found him and appreciate all his efforts to reach my goals.
