These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Stephanie Jose. 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.
So far so good. We have our first call tomorrow.

Stephanie is kind, patient and understanding - all of which are very important qualities in a therapist. We’re only a few sessions in, but I was able to get comfortable talking to her almost immediately - and I appreciate her insights and perspective.
