Rate Dr. Heather Smith

Dr. Smith's care has been invaluable. From our very first session her genuine kindness shown through and made me feel comfortable in being open. While I needed a few reminders that she's only here for me, and I don't have to pretend everything is fine, I was able to receive help in a different way than I have experienced from friends, family, mentors, etc. I recommend her to anyone who needs a gentle, reassuring, and supportive vibe who is focused on real world application.

Heather is one of the best things in my life! We get along amazingly well and I tell her more than I tell anyone else in my life. I am beyond grateful for her! She has helped me immensely. I’m sure the goal is to eventually not need therapy, but I would never not want to have her in my life. Highly highly recommend.

Heather has been a phenomenal therapist. I started therapy to address some inter-personal conflicts, and not only did Heather help me validate my feelings and concerns, but she helped me acknowledge and address some past traumas that were causing harmful thought patterns. Therapy with Heather has been the best decision I've made in my adulthood, and has changed my life for the better. In my teens I was seen by a therapist I wasn't compatible with and it left me with a negative view of therapy ('it's just not for me'); working with Heather has changed my outlook. She's incredibly knowledgable and has also helped provide me with resources for things I wouldn't have expected from a therapist-- such as resources in my city to contact for an elderly neighbor, or TikTok creators that discuss building healthy boundaries in relationships. She quickly learned what worked for me, and adapted her style to mine. She shows me a lot of empathy and is not afraid to professionally and respectfully call me out when I'm being hard-headed and unreasonable.

Heather has been immensely helpful in every possible way. She is an amazing person to work with and I cannot recommend her enough. I have grown into someone I am really proud of thanks to her help. She is kind, professional, and really takes the time work with you on treatment. She has changed my life and I am beyond grateful!

Excellent

Heather smith has helped me more than I can explain in a simple message. I am doing things now in life that I didn’t think I would ever be able to do. My thoughts we’re getting in the way, She helped me find away to understand them and work with them. Now I have more clarity and understanding than I thought was possible.

I started with Heather a year ago. I quit therapy for a couple months and didn’t think twice about coming back into with Heather. She’s very personable.

Dr. Smith is amazing, and I highly recommend her and her services. She is professional and knowledgeable. She is compassionate and caring and truly meets you where you are. She made me feel very comfortable and safe in sharing my needs. Dr. Smith empowered me and helped me through each step of the way in treating my PTSD. I thought it was going to be an impossible feat, but thanks to Dr. Smith's support, it was possible! Thank you, Dr. Smith, for everything you do! The impact you have had on my life is significant - thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you’re looking for a therapist that’s really good at listening to your problems and being able to help you focus on the core issue, Heather is the one for you. I can talk to her when I feel stressed and sad and don’t know what I need. She helps me to clarify my thoughts and find different ways to think about things. I always feel supported and stronger after we talk.

I really enjoy my sessions with Heather. She listens but also provides appropriate feedback, which is something that I haven't experienced with multiple other therapists prior to using BetterHelp.

Dr. Smith is great! She is very approachable, informative, and attentive. She thoroughly explains concepts and techniques. She’s also very reliable and consistent. I highly recommend Dr. Smith.

Heather is amazing. I was resistant to counselling for a long time, and when I finally took the plunge, I was convinced no one would be the right fit. I was wrong. She's done an amazing job learning who I am as a person and describing things in a manner that really clicks with me. She's given me a variety of skills I can use in my day-to-day, whether it be in friendships, relationships or work. When I encourage my colleagues to see a therapist, I am 100% truthful when I say nothing in my life so far has given me so much insight. Therapy with Heather has significantly improved my life (and we're just getting started!).

Heather is one of the easiest people I have been able to talk to. I’m not a very open person but she just makes ot so easy. I would recommend her 10/10 times!

Heather Smith is good for what she does, understanding the individuals personal situations, and giving the advice of what can help that individual to cope & resolve the personal situation

I felt like I could share details with Heather right away, she just comes across as someone you can trust and confide in. Her feedback is really helpful and takes into consideration what I want out of therapy.

Heather is good at what she does. She has really helped me see some of my problems with new eyes. When I discuss things with her that feel big and overwhelming, she helps me manage my feelings and also gives me ideas for things to think about that are helpful and constructive.
