These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Mia Bailey. 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.
Mia reached out to me and when I let her know, what was going on with me. She thanked me for letting her know and has kept, reaching out to check on me and let me know she's there, when I need. Which is very important to me, because she doesn't push(when I feel I am being pushed, I back away) just like a friend or sister, saying hey here when you need.
Namaste

Mrs. Bailey has helped me overcome what may seem like a little to some but a lot to me in such short time. Just being able to speak when i would usually not say anything. She is just great. She listens to you and gives you the best advise she can give for your situation. I also feel that she does not judge me and i love that i feel like i can say anything with her on how i feel no matter how silly it sounds and she just works with me with it.

Though I’ve only exchanged a few messages with Mia (mostly due to my delayed responses), I have applied all she has given me so far. Things are getting better!
