These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sharee Gunner. 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.
I really appreciate Sharee as my counselor. She is really easy to talk to, has a lot of empathy and gives useful insights that help me through my issues. She responds fairly quickly to messages and her replies are thoughtful, encouraging and supportive.

Sharee has been a kind, supportive figure in my life for the period of time I've been receiving counseling from her. She listens carefully and open-heartedly to the concerns I have brought forth, and provides ways for me to navigate my problems without ever feeling like I'm forced do what she's saying. I love that she helps us come to our own conclusions and live life based on what speaks to us the most. In the beginning it was more formal, but after a few weeks we began to warm up to one another and be able to joke around sometimes, which was always comforting.

Sharee is very kind and understanding while also challenging you to think about things in different ways. I really am enjoying her being my therapist!
