LaVondra was my therapist a couple years ago when I first tried BetterHelp. Her guidance and words of wisdom never left my mind as I navigated the last couple years of motherhood, and family life. I was so happy she could still be my therapist now that I'm signed back up again! She has a calm demeanor and really listens and responds with great care.

Very patient and helpful
She is good at talking through issues to help show other perspectives that my help lead to understandings of different causes or solutions

I love that my therapist is a woman of color and down to earth. The ability to chat versus being face to face or having to talk on the phone keeps me from having to take time off from work or to chat while my daughter is in the room. No one knows I’m having a therapy session while they are sitting in the same room with me. I’m already benefiting from the tools she gave me from our very first session!

Lavondra is flexible and attentive to my needs which is very important for my work and personal schedule. To have a therapist that listens to you, helps you, and holds you accountable is hard to come by.

As a member of a church body it has been a great experience to be able to connect with a therapist that is also in tuned with her relationship with God and he able to offer me Godly advice. I love that she listens to me and explores me before coming to any conclusions. This has been a very trying time of my life and I am thankful that I was able to speak with Mrs Boyd to help me through it. If I was to ever come back to Better Help I would use her again, she's relatable, knowledgeable, honest and caring. Sometimes people offer you what you want to hear but she tells you what you need to hear in a respectful way of course, but honesty is what gets people out of ruts so they know exactly what to face head on. Thank you for being a therapist with Better Help Mrs Boyd and thank you for letting God use you.

LaVondra has the right balance of giving you time to express yourself and providing insight. I feel heard by her, and I enjoy our sessions. I also appreciate her praying for me when I request her to. Thank you, LaVondra!
