These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Karen Slaton. 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.
She was very kind and listened to me in my time of need.

Karen is a great listener and is very empathetic in taking in my concerns and responding to them. I love being able to message her between sessions when issues come up and get her responses - I feel like she always has me back. She really understands me and my concerns and has provided me with some great resources to work with offline, too. I enjoy talking with Karen and I feel like we'll be able to work together to work through a lot of my issues.

I appreciate the fact that she has experienced some of the issues that I am having rather than just being knowledgeable through studying them. She listens, and does not judge me at all. I feel as if I can be totally honest with her and she doesn't say negative things.
