These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Maria Ponzi. 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.
Maria is fantastic and so sweet. She has been extremely helpful and supportive. She encourages me to use her as a resource when I am feeling overwhelmed, not only during a session but utilizing the direct messaging feature. Would recommend 10/10.
