These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sherlyn Conlan. 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.
Sherlyn is very gentle with her guidance. She seamlessly places wisdom during conversation in such a way that I was never shocked or taken aback by her insights. She is aware of goals and readily shares worksheets, readings, and other additional supports. (I like homework) I am grateful for her guidance.
