Rate Holly Starr

Holly Starr is one of the good ones out there. She allows me to talk and express but also sheds light on my situation. I feel a lot better after speaking with her.

I can't speak highly enough of Holly. In addition to her intelligence and expertise, she brings a soothing voice, calming presence, and even some much needed humor at just the right times. I've been speaking with her weekly for a couple of months, and I keep coming back because I get something out of each and every session with her. I was sexually abused at a young age, had friends murdered in high school, lost my stepdad (and other friends and family) to suicide, and was in very abusive relationships including one that resulted in being kicked in the face while driving causing an accident, emergency c-section, and the death of my first son (all before the age of 30). I was handling that past (I'm in my mid-40's now) plus 2020 ok all things considered until my young, healthy mom had a severe heart attack. I knew I needed someone to talk to as I navigate the prognosis which is unfortunately not what we want it to be. After a few mis-matches, I was fortunate enough to be paired with Holly. I've had some other setbacks recently, and I'm so thankful for her support to help navigate these latest obstacles. I'm impressed with how much she has empowered me, and I look forward to the continued improvements in my quality of life. Thanks Holly!

Holly has been an absolute godsend for me in the wake of my Dad's passing. She has helped me pick up the fragments of our memories together and put them into a holistic, healthy view towards him and our relationship. In the depths of my depression, Holly has been there to remind me I'm not alone and I'm strong enough to pull through this dark time. She has been absolutely instrumental in my survival.

I hit the jackpot when I was matched with Holly Starr. I came to BetterHelp because I had recently lost my mother to cancer, my friend to suicide, and my job of almost 3 years. I was angry, uncertain about my career, and devastated by the loss of my mother. I knew I needed help to navigate my new life. Holly has been warm, empathetic, eye opening, and has helped me heal in ways that didn’t seem possible in the beginning. I have been seeing Holly consistently every week for the last few months and I can say for certain that I wouldn’t be where I am today if I didn’t find her. I just started a new job in the same field that I thought was over for me and I feel more like myself everyday. I owe a lot of my new found strength to Holly and I am very grateful.

I have only had 3 sessions with Holly and the amount of work I feel I have done with her is remarkable. I find her incredibly easy to talk to and share deep conversations that have helped me navigate the issues I was seeking to address. She listens and engages in ways I have been hoping for in a therapist. She is able to guide me, asking questions and leading me into new perspectives about myself and my story and thus added to my awareness of myself and the work I can do to manage and navigate the relationships and world around me. I am very much looking forward to continuing to work with her.

Holly is smart and kind! I wanted to find a counselor that would explain things to me clearly, with a soft tone but also a firm clear instructive words. I am very happy to have been connected with Holly Starr.

Holly has been a tremendous help. In just a few sessions, she has been instrumental in helping me change my life for the better. I feel more hopeful and optimistic than I have in quite a long time. I'm so grateful to be with her.
