These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Krystyna Soch Ridenour. 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.
Krystyna is my favorite therapist I've had (from ages 13-31!)
She is a fantastic listener, she provides tools so when you encounter challenges in life, you have a skill set to cope. Her method of running the session is organized and productive even on days I don't have much to talk about. She helped me find my way out of depression and has taught me extremely valuable tools I will continue to use til my final days!

Krystyna has been nothing but supportive and validating to my feelings. She has been very open about how my process with therapy is going and how she plans to move forward. She is amazing and super kind. She has provided me with so much support and she truly cares about her clients.
