She’s the best therapist I’ve ever had and I’ve seen about nine at this point. I’m truly grateful that I met her because came to believe and except that there was only so much connection and understanding, and treatment that could be received from a therapist. And I was mistaken. Again, very very grateful to have met Miss Sunshine and I will continue to use her services and recommend her and praise about her treatment.

I feel like she really listens to what I have to say and my concerns when it comes to my journey to become a better person. I feel as I can freely be myself when speaking to her. Still a little awkward myself, but most definitely opened up a lot more than I thought I would do quickly

Sunshine has been a pleasure to work with and to get to know so far in my healing journey. She is very easy to talk to and reaches out in between sessions for a quick check in. I know she will understand what I'm going through even when I have trouble putting it all into words and she helps put things in a different perspective that I may not have thought of already. I am grateful for Better Help and the pairing I have with Sunshine as my therapist.
