Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Janis Sims. 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.
Janis has been transformative in my life, allowing me the safe space to explore thoughts and ideas in a safe and supportive way. She is patient with me and recognises patterns and behaviours over time which allows us to be goal orientated. Her questions and comments are always thought provoking and I know I can reach out and be understood. We have done several batches of sessions over the last few years and I hope to keep coming back to her in the future as and when I feel I need her to help navigate challenges.
