Feedback & Reviews
Helping and kind
She was wonderful and kind, immediately understood what I was going through.
She is incredibly kind and nice. I feel as though some 'listeners' aren't really helpful; they're just like a brick wall who respond with what anyone would say. She actually suggested things that made me feel better and she actually made me feel like she understood me. Thank you.
She really listened and showed she understood completly.... VERY helpful!!!!
Rina is a diamond in the ruff. She is thoughtful, kind and warm and just strikes at the root of the problem. I felt heard, supported and understood. I cried a load of cathartic, healing tears during our chat. She is definitely one of the better listeners. She is engaging and just plain ol' amazing. More people need to tell her that.

Thank you for being you and shining a light into the depths of my despair. Your humanity is beautiful. May your heart be easy, your steps be light and your smile bright! Sending so much gratitude and love.
I had a very thoughtful and helpful conversation over a couple hours. I didn't expect anything as I am a new user to the site but I had a lot of fun. I cried a little, but I didn't tell them this.
I'll be able to move forward without so much negative energy holding me back. Being able to confirm and define ideas I've had has helped incredibly.

Thank you!!
very helpful!!!!
This listener just got it straight away
Very good
kind, concise and yhoughtful
Very understanding
I often have very bad luck with listeners, but I really like Rina. I actually feel a little better after speaking for a while now, which I usually never do after speaking to people. So that means a lot to me
10/10
