Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jay Cook. 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.
Working with Jay has lifted me up tremendously. Since I've been working with him I changed lots of formerly destructive behaviors into constructive ones. And he makes a difference by really caring about each of his clients.
He is absolutely present in every session. He asks meaningful questions that challenge the thought process that is holding you back from being where you actually want to be. And he enriches your reflections with ideas that broaden your mind. Together with you he develops strategies that are practically and easily executable.
And he's very good at explaning. So you always get what he means.
You feel safe and heard. You are acepted in the challenges you face. So that you learn to also accept yourself and appreciate yourself. Without letting you remain in the challenges. But always encourages you to trust yourself to overcome them.
I'm enormously greatful for having Jay as my therapist.

Jay is authentic and able to work with the client's existing progress to formulate ways to help them move forward, individualizing the therapy, and helping with learning to apply practical skills to cope with existing disorders. I feel very supported by him.

I’ve been working with Jay for a year and it’s been brilliant. He’s helped me through some really tough situations and held me accountable where needed. He’s not afraid to challenge my viewpoints/approaches and work towards healthier responses/approaches to situations.
Outside of that he’s incredibly kind and personable so it felt easy to connect and trust in him. It didn’t feel stale, or like I wasn’t talking to a robot, it was really genuine and friendly and comfortable.

Jay is simply the best. Supports my thought processes and offers different perspectives. He asks thought provoking questions and also has the ability to make you laugh. He is one of the reasons I am in a better place in my healing process - thank you Jay!

I am new to therapy, and Jay has been incredibly helpful in this new journey. He has helped me reframe situations and offered a new perspective on them. I could not have wanted a better therapist, especially as someone at a first experience.

Jay helped me see my blind spots and provided a space where we could look at my patterns and talk about them in a curious, judgement-free manner. It helped me a lot, so that I was able to make better decisions, let things go and make changes in my life that I otherwise might not have come around to. What a gift! Thank you :)

Jay has been an incredible therapist, he's capable of breaking down walls very easily and makes the experience of therapy not only feel worthwhile but also transparent.
In a short time, I've made leaps and bounds in relation to my mental health with Jay's support. I appreciate how he talks through theory and uses a person centred approach, mixing several modes of therapy to create the best framework his clients.
Highly recommend!

Have been really enjoying the sessions.
Written on Aug 28, 2024 after therapy with Jay for 7 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, and family conflicts
I've had a good few sessions now with Jay and how found him to be perfect for me. He listens, gets me thinking of different points of view, and gives the theory behind why I am/do what I do, which I find very helpful. I was a bit apprehensive about therapy, however Jay makes it very easy to have an open and honest conversation and it feels like you are talking with a friend rather than a therapist from the movies.
He has really helped me understand and process relationships with parents, past relationships, dating, and work, all of which I appreciate a great deal. Thank you!

Jay makes it easy to talk about the most uncomfortable things, not only with zero judgement, but also with zero judgement anticipation!! I was fearing that I might conceal some stuff, but I ended up concealing nothing! In short, I trust him.

I find my interaction with Jay incredibly valuble. He's excellent at finding different angles and meaning in what i say, continuously bringing everything back into perspective. I like his multifaceted approach which uses different techniques and some theory. A+ :)

I came here just looking for someone to talk to and Jay has been excellent. He is a very good listener and sees the small things that are actually pretty important.
