These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Patricia (Tricia) Ring. 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.
She has a way of making you understand what you can do differently without letting you feel it's your fault for not doing it that way to begin with. I feel safe and mentally well with her.
