Reviews

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

She's kind, compassionate and supportive. Shelly asks clarifying questions when there is room for interpretation, that way she understands how to best ask questions that will help guide me to the right answer for me.

Shelly and I have worked on so many things, I feel a night and day difference with talking through things with her as well as her offering suggestions and ways to handle/cope with situations outside of my control. We discuss intimate things that are confidential that I would not want to focus on with family, but want to be able to talk to a 3rd party about to gain perspective. I appreciate her so much!

Shelly has been my therapist for a few months now and she has been the only therapist I’ve actually been able to talk to long term I always feel like they don’t do anything or help but she’s always there for me no matter time or day
