These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Nithya Narayan. 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 have learned so much in my time with Dr Narayan that I feel it’s changing my life! I have been in therapy on and off for 13 years but these last 9 months have been - by far - the most productive. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Narayan!

Dr Narayan helped me through one of the darkest times in my life with so much grace, wisdom, and compassion. I am so lucky to have her as my therapist, and you would be too!
