These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Judith (Jx) Heithmar. 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.
I really benefited from the time
I spent talking with Jx. They were a great listener and always gave me really insightful comments on the things I was trying to work out. During each of our sessions Jx shared something that I was able to latch onto and use to help me gain perspective and move forward in a positive way. Thnx Jx!

JX is such a caring person. Follows up on me and I love seeing the message "Your BetterHelp health provider sent you a message". I know she is always there for me. The only thing that I am sad about is that she doesn't accept my insurance. If you need a caring thoughtful and insightful therapist I highly recommend Judith. When my therapy is over I will definitely miss her.
