Would recommend so far, best therapist I've had to date for being blunt and sticking to the material I want to talk to, opening up new perspectives and not sugar coating.

Betterhelp went above and beyond when assigning my case to Ted. I appreciate the most, the safe space he provides me to just express how I feel. He is my sound board that I can bounce ideas, questions, concerns off of. Ted is the best!

Ted has a strong scientific approach and methodology to his therapy. I’m someone who needs concepts explained to me to help build a big enough why to execute on the plan/tools Ted provides during his sessions. And I find that Ted has the expertise I’ve been seeking to help identify areas to work on and provide reasoning as to how a particular exercise helps as remedy.

Theodore is a man who listens to what ails you and helps you with that ailment. In every session he will ask you what it is you want today's session to be about today. He allows the patient (for lack of a better word) to take the reigns of the session to help them focus on what we want to change.
