These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michelle Benton. 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.
Michelle is warm and understanding. She gives me details feedback on my thoughts, both in messages and video call. She response quickly and already in the call when the session starts. I really appreciate her expertise on relationship, self-esteem, depression as well as her caring and professional attitude.
