These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Vanessa Womack. 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.
If you need someone to call you out on your own stuff... she is great at not holding back. I recommend her for anyone that actually wants input and change, not just to be listened to.
