These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Robert Shackelford. 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.

Robert Shackelford is a great therapist, and I’ve used him previously for couples therapy on a related platform. He is kind, neutral, and I really appreciate how he creates a space that allows me to pour my feelings out (there are many of them) while prompting me to do some self-reflections. Talking to him is easy, and I highly recommend him.

Robert continues to be patient and listen to my needs and hopes. He has helped me build, understand, and maintain a framework of how my thinking works and to identify where events fall within my framework. This has given me more pause in my actions, which allows for more deliberate next steps instead of winging it like I had been.

Robert is a fantastic coach and therapist. He has a way of extracting hidden thoughts and emotions out of you. Very easy to talk to and a very talented therapist. Highly recommend.
