I believe sometimes all we need is for someone to listen to us without judging to help find our answers. In my sessions, the client is completely involved in determining the course of therapy. We will work together to see if we can begin to identify the problem and what you might like to do about the problem. We will explore how we will know when this has been accomplished and how often we will meet together. You, as a client, are completely involved in determining treatment for your own life.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Marilyn Marshall. 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.
Marilyn was very friendly and non judgmental. Her warm demeanor made it easy for me to open up and she is a great listener. I truly enjoy talking to her. I look forward to working with her in the upcoming sessions to help me be a better person.
