These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shantizia Figgs. 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.
Shan is amazing!!! Since being in therapy, I've grown leaps and bounds but I wouldn't have been able to do it without her

Shantizia has been working with me though my physical (chronic hives ) and mental pressures (hostile work environment and anxiety related stress as a result ) . I was so so so on edge when we first started talking . Over time she’s been responsive and succinct with my care needs . I appreciate this benefit so much and could not imagine a better counselor for this particular journey .

Shantizia is an amazing counselor. I have been working with her for only about a month and I can feel a big difference in how I am processing things. She is always encouraging while still pushing me to really dig deep in working to heal. :)
