Rate (Jared) Bollenbacher

Jared has been extremely helpful in helping me deal with some current and past problems. Not injecting any of his opinion, he listens and encourages me to trust my self. Without his guidance, I feel that I would be in the same situation I’ve been in for the last several years.

Brayton listens and does a great job of clarifying things so you walk away with actionable goals. He’s very understanding

Great at listening to my problems and providing me achievable goals to take steps towards goals we set together. Also very understanding in hard times.

I have been working with Jared Brayton Bollenbacher for two months. He has been an incredible support to me as I have worked through difficult personal issues. I am so thankful for his clear and compassionate advice, listening when I needed to talk, helping me set new goals, and celebrating when those goals were largely accomplished. I don’t think I would have made such progress without his help. I’m so grateful! Thank you, Brayton!

Patient, kind, understanding yet tells it like it is. Supportive & guides with questions and/or homework that is effective

Brayton is welcoming, understanding and is a guide along my path for therapy. He is just a cool dude. I am thankful for being paired with him.

From the conversations we have had he is understanding and seems to work well me easily

Brayton has been an excellent help to me during this stressful time. He asks what I think are the best questions for what I'm going through at the moment, and really helps me move through my feelings.

Brayton has been a great fit for me even though I’ve already had a lot of therapy in the past, and I’m so glad to find someone like that on the platform. I’ve heard from people that if BetterHelp isn’t your first therapy experience it can be hard to fit someone that’s right for you. If you’re struggling with this, Brayton might be a good person to try meeting with. He’s straight forward in a way that works really well for me, and gives excellent guidance. An example is that I was taking some time off after a particularly stressful period and talking about what I’m going to do with it. He was like “or, you could just do nothing.” It seems obvious now but I needed someone to say it, and I think that’s a lot of what therapy can be for people.

Ive really been liking my sessions with Brayton! he is easy to talk to, and makes me feel valid when talking about my feelings & how certain things have affected me. it’s been helping a lot!

Brayton is great at asking the right questions and has a no-nonsense and grounded approach to complicated issues.

He's an excellent listener and funny :)

Brayton is fantastic. I was new to therapy and he really helped me even as I felt I could barely articulate my thoughts. I really feel I owe him a lot moving forward.

Brayton is empathetic, and I appreciate his objective advice as I struggle with several issues and try to better understand myself.

Brayton listens to what you have on your mind and then he asks very good questions to make you think about your issues.

Brayton is such a helpful counselor! During our time together, he was able to get to the core issues through asking thoughtful questions and using excellent listening and observation skills. Definitely couldn't have survived this year without his support! He is very trauma informed and understands the complexities of the stresses of the world and how it can affect mental health.

Quick, prompt, and to the point. 30 minutes may not be a long time, but his being concise really helped me get at the core of the issue.

He’s truly a great listener and offers good insight. He is easy to talk to and I feel comfortable sharing my concerns with him.
