The Healthy Gamer experience is the best support I've ever gotten in life. I thought I would be satisfied with just the Youtube videos and Twitch streams, but having someone right in your corner is so pog. Lets go HG.GG!

This program helped me a lot with gradual change and being able to recognize and appreciate that change more often. The conversations I had and the people I was lucky enough to meet are going to be ones that I never forget. HealthyGamer and everyone that contributes to it are doing something truly amazing and I'm so glad I got to be a part of it.

I expected my coach to have all of the answers to my problems, but instead my coach helped me to understand myself and answer those questions for myself. As someone who has never placed much focus on my own feelings or sat with myself to determine what I wanted for myself and my future, I found this process immensely valuable. To say that I've gained a new outlook/perspective on life would be an understatement. 11 out of 10 would highly recommend.

HealthyGamer Coaching was just the tool that I needed to help me hold myself accountable for the things that I want for myself. The support and guidance is unmatched and the breadth of knowledge effectively communicated by my coach has been incredibly helpful to me working towards my goals!

I've been through the mental health system (US), several therapists, but none of them made me feel heard like my coach would. Communication was great from the start, and only got better. When I return, I'm sure to request her again. Thanks to Dr.K and the team that makes the program possible, and again to my coach. HG and everyone involved are doing the world a favor with the services provided. I hope to return soon. Good game.

This is the first time that therapy/coaching has really made an impact on my life. And I can't imagine where I would be right now without this program. It really has made quite the impact on me and I can't wait to see how I implement all of the things we talked about in our sessions in my life.
