I joined BetterHelp a month ago because I had reached a point in my life journey that I knew in order for me to continue to grow and feel better about myself I needed to dig deeper into my past and what has gotten me where I am today. I had my first live video appointment 4 weeks ago with Joy. She immediately made me feel comfortable and in a safe space. We had a great first session and I felt as though she listened and from her experience immediately recognized things in our conversation that are part of my past that are driving my current behaviors. She provided insight and didn’t push for me to go deeper unless I wanted to. Since that visit we have met weekly and continued to walk through what is happening in my life today and how my reactions and behaviors are tied to the past. Joy has given me tools and things to ask myself that have helped me challenge myself in my daily life and focus more on what is driving my reactions and responses. I have used the daily journal to share each day any highlights or thoughts I want Joy to be aware of and to know about me between our weekly visits. She regularly responds and offers her insight into what she is hearing in my writings. This helps me between our weekly visits continue to feel connected and supported on my journey. Overall, I can’t say enough great things about my experience with BetterHelp and with Joy. The platform is perfect, easy to navigate and helps make me feel in constant connection. Both the app and the website are exceptional tools. Thank you Joy and BetterHelp for enriching my life and bringing me closer to my best self.

I've only had a couple of sessions with Joy so far but I feel like I am making a lot of progress already. She is really easy to talk to and genuinely seems to care. I feel like she is the therapist I have been searching for and so thankful to be working with her.
