Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Mariam Ross. 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've only had a couple of sessions with Mariam so far but I felt comfortable with her instantly. She's already impressed me with the conversational way she engages; she masterfully asks questions that lead me to reframe or rethink whatever it is I'm stressing about. Mariam has been wonderful and I hope she's available and willing to be my therapist for a very long time.

Mariam is great and has helped me learn a lot helpful coping skills in the time that I've been working with her!

Mariam is a great listener. Her response to the things that are shared with her are assessed/analyzed and given responses that are reasonable, doable, understandable and/or obtained. She helped me see things and put the right word/feeling to the things I was struggling with. Her compassion can truly be felt. I’d recommend her to a family/friend.

Mariam really does offer a safe, calm space and a compassionate listening ear for whatever you may be facing in your life. She is extremely empathetic and takes things at your pace. It is easy to feel comfortable and open up with Mariam. My sessions felt more like confiding in an old friend rather than speaking to a stranger. Thank you Mariam!

100 percent would recommend- Mariam is so wonderful and considerate. she is a great listener and gives good insight when i need it. as a queer and trans person, i find it hard to find a good match for therapy but whenever i had a session with Mariam i always felt seen.
