Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Oren Hernández. 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.

This is my fourth attempt at therapy. The reason for my multiple tries is my desire to find someone who is not only knowledgeable but also someone I genuinely respect and can envision as a mentor. Dr. H definitely has that aura about him. In just a few sessions, he has provided me with insightful books to read and guidance on a better diet. However, the most valuable gift he has given me is the opportunity to restructure the belief systems that have been holding me back.

Dr. Hernandez is incredibly insightful in understanding what makes people tick. He both listens patiently and provides clear and direct guidance to help people overcome challenges in relationships and grow personally. I am very grateful for his support and advice and would highly recommend him.
