These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Victoria Baker. 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.
Victoria Baker is a gem! I worked with her throughout a difficult year during the pandemic. Now, back with her for a second time, dealing with medical issues and post surgical care. Victoria is knowledgeable and intuitive in all areas that pertain to mental health; she brings many alternatives to the table. Ms. Baker is well versed in non conventional therapies that work as an adjunct to mental health counseling.
Better Help can only be as good as it’s counselors and on that note I rate them highest on their survey scales. Thank you for your service!
