These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michelle Reese. 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 understanding and listens with exceptional attention. I’m often surprised the details she remembers, and she uses this big picture understanding to help keep her patient’s situation in perspective. I appreciate her kind and direct way of reframing negative spinning thoughts, I need someone who is able and willing to challenge my thoughts when I’m not thinking clearly and I have benefitted so much from her redirection. I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone struggling with their thoughts.
