“Understandable and relatable”

“We appreciate working with Larry. We have reccomended Better Help to others.”

“Good communication”

“Dr. Scappa is a very kind, genuine guy with years of experience and expertise under his belt. He is non judgemental and open. My husband and I both feel very heard and welcomed by him and feel we can share anything without fear of judgement or shame. We have tried other marriage counselors and felt that we gained nothing until we tried therapy with Laurence. We’re so thankful to have him as our therapist. Especially with his knowledge on specific topics that affect both of us.”

“Laurence is down to Earth, old school And really a good therapist. Highly recommend him if you are old school way of thinking!”

“Laurence Scappa is a well read, well rounded and consummate professional. I have been given a sound and thought provoking professional to guide me through the rough waters of my concerns. He provides sound and introspective advice and guidance. I am a better man because of him.”

“He is hands down the realest person and therapist I ever met. I don’t feel like I talking to a therapist. He’s just a really wise man who gives honest and great advise. He is teaching me the tools to start loving myself and focus on the now.”

“Laurence is the best therapist I’ve worked with.”

“Excellent communication so far!”

“Laurence is very experienced and is super relatable. It felt like we were talking to a family friend just giving their friendly advice. It didn’t feel like a therapy session which to us is a huge plus because me and my partner feel comfortable with telling him our problems and getting his opinions whether we like them or not. He is straight up and it works perfect for us”

“I really appreciate Lawrence and his expertise. I’ve been in two sessions with him but he is a great therapist. Great tips with what I need for coping whatever I’m going through.”

“Larry and I connected right away. He is quick to identify the true reasons and assess life situations and dynamics. I would highly recommend him to anyone.”

“Larry is very compassionate and very patient. He’s very honest and real which opened my eyes to so many things! Highly recommend!”

“He's the best. I feel like I'm talking with a member of my family.”

“Larry listens actively and allows me to take as much time to answer any follow-up questions. He does not give me answers to situations, but helps guide me to the best method to solve them. For myself he gives me tools to utilize to aid in the stress.”
