Jenny understands my needs and concerns and i feel supported in my issues.
Written on Mar 24, 2021 after therapy with Jennifer (Jenny) for 7 months
I can already tell that Jenny is going to be better than other therapists I have tried -- she is on top of things and asks the right questions to make you see things from another perspective. She also manages expectations by asking what your expectations are from therapy sessions....this is incredibly refreshing. During chaotic times, it is really important to feel like your counselor has a thought-out plan and you are not floating in space and opening up without a purpose or reason. She is wonderful on the phone and over messages.

She's one of the very few councilors who actually takes the time to listen. I don't worry that I'm going to get lost in the conversation, which was a problem with other therapists.

I’ve been speaking with Jenny for about two weeks and from when I started to now she has made me feel so much better about things in my life. She’s so supportive and listens carefully to everything and helps me come up with new ways to better my situation. Honestly I would be in a very dark place if it weren’t for her.

Written on Jul 02, 2019 after therapy with Jennifer (Jenny) for 1 year and 7 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and parenting issues
Jenny has spent several months helping me out of a dark place, and along the way being the biggest supporter in my corner. It doesn't matter if I need someone to help me with problems like depression and a poor relationship with food, or just someone to listen to me complain about a past relationship rearing its ugly head. She's always there, always honest and calm, and always makes me feel like I am in a better place than before I spoke to her. She is an invaluable part of my mental health journey, and I feel extremely fortunate to have her as my counselor.

Jenny is by far the best counselor that I have ever experienced. She seems to be able to pick up on exactly that you mean, even if you're unable to express it clearly. She really does take the time to read everything and respond with great insight. She is both supportive and extremely helpful at the same time.
Written on Jul 24, 2018 after therapy with Jennifer (Jenny) for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, and parenting
In just a few sessions Jenny has been exceptionally helpful in guiding me to find solutions to a host of big emotional obstacles related to hardships in my life as well as internal struggles. She is kind, reasonable and quite clearly dedicated to her work. She is effective at breaking things down so that they seem less intimidating and enigmatic. She is helping to reintroduce me to my sanguine, effective, and confident self.
Written on Jun 22, 2018 after therapy with Jennifer (Jenny) for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and anger
Jenny is the best therapist I’ve worked with so far. She gets what’s going on behind my humor/sarcasm, which had always been my biggest struggle with people. She is VERY empathetic and always knows the right thing to say. I struggle with expressing my feelings using terms; so I send long stories, and she always responds with strong attention to details. Thanks to her, I now see life in more colors :) She goes above and beyond to put a smile to on your face. I don’t know how she does it. I wish there were more than five stats in a rating.

Written on Oct 30, 2017 after therapy with Jennifer (Jenny) for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship
I reached out to BetterHelp because I was having very sudden anxiety about a very specific situation. I was paired with Jenny, who really understood my situation and dove in to help with the immediate anxiety issues. She gave me an understanding about anxiety that I didn't have before (it wasn't something I'd experienced before) and some concrete tools to help get through the emotional crisis times. The situation causing the anxiety has since resolved, and I feel much better equipped to deal with this if it happens again in the future. Jenny has kept in touch to make sure everything is still ok and help with any remaining issues. She's great!
