These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kelly Heinlen. 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.
Kelly seems to have a lot of experience in the areas that I really need the most assistance in, it’s really difficult to open up to others about hard past experiences but she is very soft spoken and easy to speak with. I am looking forward to really working more on myself and having a good connection with her so I’m able to overcome a lot of my own barriers.
Something I appreciated about our first conversation was that she was really direct. For a person like me who likes to go the avoidance route I really found I needed that & respond better to a therapist who is able to speak to me in this manner over difficult situations I don’t want to face or conversation I am not confrontational about, Excited to make progress through my own barriers.

Kelly has been very helpful with my new therapy journey. She is kind and a good listener. She has helpful advice on things I need to work on.

Kelly is amazing!!! I’ve never been able to fully own or open up to things that were personal. Kelly makes me feel comfortable enough to open up to her and it is an amazing feeling!!!!! Highly recommended!!!!!!!
