These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Stephanie Noto. 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.
Only a few sessions, but a great listener, understanding, and down to earth person with a good grasp on life. I feel like I am talking to a relatable human being with a lot of wisdom to share, not some distant therapist “sitting” across from me, analyzing my every word. She really cares about the people she works with, and will always try to let you know why she is rescheduling if she has to. 5 stars

Stephanie has always been honest, kind and supportive towards me. I don’t know where I’d be without her. Thank you Stephanie :)

She’s sweet and understanding, but gives the same advice a far friend can give. What I was looking for was some direction and honest feedback about me personally, and not tips and advices about things already do regularly.

I love working with Stephanie. She flexes her schedule to accomodate. She acknowledges and responds to written messages in a timely manner, always listens and when necessary puts things in perspective by offering simple solutions/options. I also like the feeling that she is "always there".

I met Stephanie when I was going through a tough time in my life. She helped me by keeping me on track and helping me move forward though all of life's ups and downs. She was caring, compassionate, and always willing to listen. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
