Johnathon is awesome. He is easy to talk to and I feel very welcome and comfortable to be myself and never feel judged. It was immediately apparent that he genuinely wants to help me achieve my goals relating to mental health. I can tell he cares about this process and my success. It’s so refreshing to find help in somebody that I feel is on my team. I’m very grateful for having found BetterHelp and Johnathon and finally feel like I’m on a path towards progress and looking forward to the journey as well as the destination. Thank you.
