These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kathleen McCarthy . 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.
There is a level of comfort I feel with Kathleen. She listens to me and offers advice when I need it.
