These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Matthew Pearce. 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.
I made more self growth in the first week of therapy with Matthew than I have in years and I feel better than I have in a long time too. Looking forward to more progression!

Matthew was great to work with. We got right to the heart of helping solve my issues with trauma. He is easy to talk to, prompt, and enlightened me on what my mind and body were actually doing to stay safe! A lot of progress in just 1 month so far!
