If you put the work in this is a great experience.

Thanks for everything. I appreciate you being there for me when I was struggling. You are helping me to understand myself and helping me. Figure out who I am again. I was lost when I started talking to you. Things aren't easy for me at the moment, but getting a job is helping keep a roof over my head. Talking about things helps me finally let go of my past to move forward. I am learning about myself in general, which helps me talk to God. I know things are going to get better. Just by taking one a day at a time

Dr. Smith is a fantastic therapist! She helped me get through a very complex matter in my life, which I am incredibly grateful for. Her faith-based perspective was something, I greatly appreciated and valued throughout our sessions.

She's extremely helpful and insightful. She's very easy to talk to. She has truly changed my previous opinions about therapy.

Dr. Smith is a true master of her craft; which was very hesitant to go to therapy and had no idea what to expect my first therapist I matched with was not a goood fit but Dr. Smith has been amazing. She listens, she challenges me and she provides constructive and easy to understand perspectives that I might not have otherwise considered when facing challenges. I’d recommend her services with out a doubt and have come to realize this is what therapy should look like and it is no wonder why so many people swear by it.

Dr. Smith is very empathetic and human in every way possible when it comes to relational intelligence. Most often therapist lose their han connection because of what they do making it difficult for me as a patient to be comfortable sharing with them. But Dr. Smith is empathetic, pays attention and asks the right questions to help answer questions I didn't even know I was asking myself. She makes me think about my situation and what could have led me to come to the conclusions I made all while ensuring that I know she hears me and understands me first as a person and then as a professional helping me navigate the issues I'm facing.

She talks to me like a friend. I find this feeling of bestfriend support from her despite it being timed. I have no words to describe how thankful i am for her.

Dr. smith has been wonderful. I feel like I am actually being heard, and he suggestions are very helpful.

Very Empathic

I can’t explain the respect I have for Dr. Smith. I had to leave therapy for a few months and as soon as I came back I had no questions or thoughts I wanted to see her again. She listens, gives useful and feasible advice. She helps you attain those small goals that will ultimately get you to your end goal in life, self, or whatever it is you need to get to. I will be with her for a while but I am so thankful for her and her knowledge and just how personable she is. It feels like I’m talking to a great friend who has so much insight on how to help guide you but doesn’t push either. You take your time and she will be there with you the whole way.

Dr. Smith’s approach is grounded and logical, which is something I truly appreciate. My hesitancy toward therapy was the impression that it would be “syrupy”, and I know now that it doesn’t have to be. I feel strongly that BetterHelp matched me with the right partner for the journey.

Dr. Smith is an amazing therapist, her attention to detail and empathy do not go unnoticed and it feels very natural having conversations with her. My experience with her guiding me through my therapy journey has been one that make me appreciate therapy and I find myself recommending it to friends and family members mostly based on my positive experience. I would with out a doubt recommend her to anyone and Dr. Smith should definitely be celebrated.

Great fit! She is easy to talk to, no judgement only a whole lot of help!

I had strong reservations when I first signed up for Betterhelp, but Sonya quickly eased my worries. Sonya was actually my first paired therapist and I honestly couldn't ask for a better therapist to talk to. I feel like I'm talking to that really cool teacher from highschool that would check in on you after class to make sure you understood the material. I love how organic and laid back our conversations are, and even when it got into touchy subjects I never felt like I was being judged and that's a really big thing for me. I would highly recommend Sonya to anyone, take that from a first time app user/therapy client who was on the fence with therapy in the first place

Dr. Smith is very understanding. She takes the time to wholeheartedly listen to concerns and provide helpful tips and solutions to help cope with various challenges and situations.

The most incredible therapist! I can’t even explain how much growth and change I’ve had because of her guidance. She is truly a kind hearted therapist who really takes time to invest in her clients.

Dr. Smith has been such an amazing therapist. I have been able to truly breakthrough in a lot of areas during the past few months. I am really glad to work with her. I continue to grow and make progress.

I chose Dr. Smith as a counselor and was so impressed with her ability to recognize my issues and help me structure an idea of what I needed and a plan. She doesn't sugarcoat things but is fair and honest. She listened with care and grace. There was zero judgment of my situation nor did I feel the need to explain things to her. She got it and supported me. I am truly grateful for the sessions I have had with her and her expertise. Her sessions are a bright spot in my week and I end them feeling much lighter and supported.

Very professional and has helped me a lot over the last couple of weeks

Dr. Smith was exactly what I needed to start my counseling journey. I was hesitant to start out of fear, but she quickly made me feel comfortable and proved that she genuinely cared over and over. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone who needs alto be heard and healed. I can’t thank her enough for the impact she has made on my life in only a few months!!

Dr.Smith is great! She’s understanding, knowledgeable, informative, and supportive. I highly recommend her and BetterHelp. Just what I needed! I feel so grateful.

Dr. Smith is wonderful. She makes me feel comfortable enough to speak freely without feeling judged and gives me different methods and tools to deal with whatever is going on in my life in a healthy way. Very sweet genuine soul.

I love my therapist. She’s so incredible. She’s attentive and makes me feel seen and heard. She walks me through my problems and helps me find out why I respond the way I do!

She's excellent. I would recommend her services to anyone.

Dr. Smith is very intuitive, calming and has a great demeanor. She is so easy to talk to and I’m glad I found her!

Dr. Smith is very understanding and a great listener. Very helpful to work with me in identifying my challenges and areas for improvement and applying a strategy to improve my perception and outlook on issues that are bothering me.

So far my sessions with Dr. Smith are going great. She gives me multiple perspectives to think about and gives me tasks to work on. I can tell she really cares about my outcome.

I've only had two sessions with Sonya so far and we've already covered so many of the topics I wanted to touch on. I almost immediately felt comfortable enough to tell her things even my closest friends don't know. She's an incredible confidant and helps me feel like I truly am in a safe space when we speak. She's smart, insightful, and I feel lucky to have been paired with her.
