These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jessica Bates. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I'm new to therapy, but Jessica is great to talk to. She asks questions that I find helpful since I can tend to sit and overanalyze things and think in circles.

I love her. Second time being in therapy but first time where I was doing it willingly. She's helped me so much. She's helped my confidence.
