These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Karen Vertti. 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.
Seeing Dr. Vertti via Better Help has really helped me in the last few months. Getting back into therapy, reminds me there is help and that I can do it! I like working with a therapist that is genuine and that I can easily relate to.
