These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kristin Pacello. 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.
Kristin has been absolutely amazing in my therapy journey!! She is such an amazing listener, so patient and kind which makes opening up so much easier. Her personality creates a sort of comfort talking to her that feels like an old friend. She offers such a wide variety of resources and natural approaches for dealing with mental health, and the use of meditation has been so so helpful for me specifically.
