“She is great and easy to talk to”

“She's so real and down to earth and knows her stuff she makes you feel comfortable opening up and gives immense support in so many ways I have never felt more comfortable and confident in a therapist she's the best I've met in 30 years of therapy”

“Very understanding and supportive but blunt and leads you to questions you need to think about.”

“We have a plan on how to find what is best for me.”

“I've never had a therapist work with me not only around my mental health but working around my illnesses and autoimmune issues that arise and is so understanding and non judgemental about my ever changes in schedule due to that and family issues. I feel she understands I'm doing my best with what's thrown at me and checks in and out sessions are always so amazing. I have nothing but trust and respect for her . 10 out of 10 recommend her to any and every one<br /> I know I'm not the easiest to client but I never feel judged or dismissed<br /> I feel heard. My goal is to respect her time better if I'm not feeling well or overwhelmed I would hate lose her as a great sounding board<br /> Thanks Jessica Murphy”

“I don't trust people easily and my therapist Stacia makes me so at ease and comfortable I'm so impressed by her knowledge and sensitivity and understanding of all my issues. I couldn't be more happy with my therapist. She's amazing”

“I have always had difficulty talking, especially about my mental, emotional, and sexual health. Stacia has this gentle spirit in her approach in helping me open up. Each session I feel I gain a little more confidence and insight into how to communicate about myself and in understanding myself. I wish all clients had a professional like Stacia.”

“I appreciate that I'm able to take my time with my therapist.”

“I love Stacia! She listens and builds upon what I share. She demonstrates that she really cares and that makes all the difference.”

“She is a great listener and responses are helping me.”

“Stacia is easy to work with because talking to her is like talking to a friend. She has helped me greatly in accomplishing some of my personal goals and I would recommend her practice.”

“I’ve just had one session but she seems very experienced in what I need help with. Looking forward to more!”

“Stacia is very kind and understanding. I highly recommend her.”

“Just couldn’t ask for anything more. BetterHelp has made an enormously positive impact on my mental health goals. Very thankful for my therapist.”

“Stacia is beyond amazing! She is patient and kind and I love that she gives me things to work on outside of our sessions and follows up the next session.”
