These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Bear Donna. 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.
Already after the first session getting Bear Donnas perspective helped me see things more clearly and most likely avoided a lot of chaos and drama down the line.
Can recommend and would definitely do sessions with him again, if I feel like I have other things to work through

Bear managed to identify my ADHD symptoms in the first session. I have been in therapy for 2 years with no much results but now I can feel I can address the problem at its root. Definitely recommended
