These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Rajan Christian. 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.
After several months I am able to not only take on issues as they arise but feel confident in Rajan's ability to understand and relate to my challenges and be able to recognize aspects I'm not seeing, or ways to take on issues with new perspective. Great listener and great ability to Challenge me to grow and not just talk.

I am greatly enjoying my sessions with Rajan. He provides real-life examples and expertise on how to tackle some of the issues I am going through. He does not give the 'cookie-cutter' answers, but true examples of real life situations to help me improve. I feel very comfortable when speaking to Rajan. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly.

Rajan is a very positive person with good insight. I feel he's been very helpful with teaching me to think a different way about the things that bother me and turning them into a positive fuel that encourages me to step beyond and become more instead of stewing and continuing to become worse. Thank you Rajan

Highly Recommend! Rajan, truly offers client-based therapy! New to working with him but consistently offers unique perspectives to consider while also making you feel heard and understood. I am confident I will see a lot of progress in my life as a result of his help.

I wouldn’t have wished for a better counselor.
He was actually the first person to tell me , candidly too, “that he’d place a bit on me to get back on my feet again”. This means a lot to me and, occasionally when am down, I remind myself of this statement.
