These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Stella Holmes-Hughes. 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 knowledgeable, she listens to what I have to say and is concerned about my well being. She gives strong advice and support through experience.

Stella and I connected so easily. She has helped me see myself in ways I haven’t been able to. She grounds me and brings me back to focus. She has been the best therapist I’ve had who really listens and prioritizes me in every session. She is honest but never a “yes man” she tells it like it is in a kind way. I’m very grateful for a therapist like her!
