These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Tammy Occhipinti. 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.
Dr. Occhipinti is a God sent. She listens, provides sound and logical advice, calls things out for what they are and doesn't mix words. She is direct yet compassionate and empathetic. I trust her completely.

Dr. Occhipinti is a very compassionate therapist. She listens and hears me, validates my point of view and feelings and provides professional strategies for me in my healing journey. She is very personable and easy to talk to and trust. I feel like I have grown and changed and healed tremendously under her care, even in a short time. I highly recommend her as a therapist!

Dr. Occhipinti remembered my history and past discussions, despite going nearly a year between sessions. She also does a great job of restating my issues and enabling me to see things in a different light. As someone in their 50’s, I appreciate having a therapist with some life experience. And I’ll add that she is very responsive to messages through the BetterHelp app.

Working with Dr. Occhipinti for about 9 months and it’s been so helpful to my personal growth and strength. She is a great advocate, listens, asks thought provoking questions, challenges me as I work through marital and family issues. It’s been great to have a place to process and work though hard things outside of the family dynamic.
