I’ve been seeing Val for a few years now and I am just so grateful for her. In my time seeing her, my anxiety has gone from unbearable to manageable & I’ve gotten sober and maintained my sobriety. I’m not saying she is the sole reason for these things happening but she was definitely a supporting factor. She always makes me feel heard and is sympathetic and nonjudgmental. She’s always in my corner and I truly feel like I can tell her anything, and I have! I’m so glad I started therapy.

She is responsive and takes the time to really hear me out. She has always made me felt heard. At times my day has drastically changed and I’ve had to cancel or reschedule an appointment she always makes a point to help me find another appointment that will work.

I would recommend Valerie Collins wherever she practices. She is the reason I use Better Health.

Great so far

As soon as I heard Val’s accent I felt at home. She listens so intently and offers helpful feedback and suggestions. She’s so personable and seems very knowledgeable. I’m very grateful to have been matched with her.

I love that I never feel judged and she really is so genuine in trying to help. If I haven’t spoke to her in a few days she will message me and check in. Sometimes I need the motivation to reach out so that helps so much.

Best therapist I've ever had. Listens to everything you say. Responds right on time. Advice that really relates to you instead of generic responses. Remembers everything you tell her so you never have to recap previous conversations. Feels like more of a friend then therapist. Loved her

Valerie is a great listener who gives positive input. I enjoy our sessions.

She gives me specific things to work on that challenge me intellectually. She meets me right where I’m at.

She is very helpful, attentive and caring, helps you find different ways to look at your problems. She always asks for your input if she wants to send you a worksheet or additional information.

Valarie is the best therapist I feel like I have ever talked with. I don’t think I’ve been excited to meet with a therapist before but I feel like Ms. Collins is actually helping me with issues I have been holding onto for decades.

I have seen several therapists over the years. Valerie is by far my favorite.

I can't imagine anyone better.

Val is supportive and provides many different tools and exercises that help with all the different issues that arise. She does not judge and allows me to pick topics I want to focus on but is able to help Segway into problems/issues that I need to focus on. She has been a tremendous help with my depression, anxiety and trauma. She has helped me increase my confidence as well. Definitely recommend her foe all the above mentioned issues.

Valarie has been a tremendous help to me in a short period of time. She is so kind and doesn’t make me feel judged at all. A few weeks ago I was an anxious mess, and Valarie has given me so many tools to manage my stress better. I avoided therapy in the past because I thought my problems were silly and I felt embarrassed by them. I am so glad I gave BetterHelp a try.

Valerie is smart, professional and is helping me learn to be more assertive and set boundaries. She is also great at parenting issues. I would highly recommend her.

Val is an exceptional therapist and knows how to get to the root of the issue. I have had many revelations with Val's guidance and look forward to my therapy session every week.

Valarie is such a lovely person and is great support!

She has given me questions and assignments to complete to help me through my hard times and to help me understand myself and my life. Most therapists just listen, but she gives action which is extremely helpful.

Val is fantastic! She takes you and your concerns on as if they are her own and works around the clock to ensure her clients are taken care of.

Valarie is a wonderful caring and compassionate individual. She responds with just the right questions and always makes me feel validated but asks probing questions in just the right way. I would recommend her to anyone looking for help and feeling lost. She will help you find your way.

We have only spoken once but I have all the faith in her as I am leaning on her right now for some guidance.

The BEST!

Val is great she helping me out a lot and I greatly appreciate her for it

A year ago I was extremely anxious, dissociated, and just all-around NOT okay. I got into therapy with Val and it’s insane how much better I’m doing. You can’t expect a therapist to solve your problems for you, I definitely had to put in a lot of work. But Val gave me the tools I needed, facilitated my growth, and was always there to listen when I needed someone. She is amazing! 12/10 would recommend her!

Valarie is very knowledgeable and offers a lot of strategies to help me with my problems. I’ve gone through a lot of counselors over the years and none are comparable to Valarie.

Shes asks all the right questions to get you thinking in ways you hadn't before. She helps to validation and reassure you what you are feeling in normal and ok. With the email communication prior to our first video I felt like we were able to dive in so much faster.

Val has helped me through the hardest time in my life and I’m forever grateful for her. I couldn’t of gotten through this or been this strong without her.

Valerie has truly helped me through a tough time personally and professionally. She addresses my concerns individually, and has given me coping techniques to deal with my challenges. She listens and responds with empathy and objectivity. She makes me feel heard, and offers alternative points of view that I might not otherwise have considered. I highly recommend Valerie!

I cam to Val because I was having issues with relationships, my career, and depression. She helped me with all of these. It's clear that she is very experienced and has a lot of knowledge on these topics and how to help with them. I always look forward to speaking with her.

I’ve been with Valarie for quite a while now, and she’s been fantastic in helping me with issues surrounding trauma, grief, depression, and substance use. She is incredibly insightful and extremely kind and caring.

I started talking to Valarie several months ago mid COVID, I was struggling with my relationship and my anxiety and depression really bad. To the point where I had called the TALK hotline a few times, before I realized I really needed someone to talk to on a regular basis. The questionnaire process pointed me to Valarie, and right away within the first few sessions she helped me get through so much. She’s given me tools to use in real life to help me fight off my stress and keep me focusing on what’s best for me. I am so thankful I was matched with her, she is the best, most helpful counselor I have talked to over my years of trying others.

Val is a fantastic counselor. She supports me and I feel safe to talk about anything. I never feel judged or like we can't talk about something. I know she will give me guidance to help me make the best decision for myself based on my needs.

Val is great! She is very attentive and proactive, and asks lots of questions. She's very careful to adapt to the needs of her counselee, rather than trying to impose a script or agenda upon the session. She doesn't dictate or give orders, but rather suggests mental exercises and tools and to help anyone deal with any given situation. Thanks Val!

Valerie has been extremely helpful and I’m so comfortable with her!
