These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Melissa Walters. 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.
Melissa helped me navigate difficult family and life situations as I was getting ready for a wedding and job change within the same few months. She helped me think things out and find working solutions.
