Not only is Renee Giegel an excellent therapist, she listens, she understands the process of trust, she doesn’t act like a robot, she is human and shares human life to ensure you receive quality therapy.
I don’t know what I’d do if I didn’t see her checking in on me. She is patient and kind, she is everything that I’ve never had in a therapist. She is a lifeline that goes everywhere with me 24 hours a day. She responds. She gets to know you so that she better knows how to help. Renee is BetterHelp.
I’ve recommended BetterHelp to numerous people when they are in situations that I don’t want to even try to play therapist. I can be supportive but I am not a therapist, that why I recommend you.
Thank you Renee-you are a big part of why life is just better

This is my first time working with a therapist and Betterhelp and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with. I probably would have never sought out therapy in person, it took a lot for me to seek out virtually. Renee is a natural & professional at this. So nice to work with her and collaborate on ways to better my mental wealth and physical well-being. I have been doing better since speaking with her and hope to continue our work to making me a better version of myself. Thank you Renee!

I love Renee! I feel like I’ve finally found someone who understands not just my goals for counseling but also me and how complex life can be. She doesn’t expect you to sit down and list your whole life story (unless you want to) but rather eases into the sessions and makes you feel comfortable.
