Live broadcast, October 21 news recently, Clippers player Paul George said in an interview with Sports Illustrated that he would cooperate with mental health organization BetterHelp, provide free mental health services worth 3 million dollars for those in need.
“I have seen many psychologists to help me get out of trouble. They help me deal with interpersonal relationships, stay focused and prepare for the competition. This is very helpful to me, so I strongly suggest that those who encounter problems let psychologists help you.” George said, “No matter what you are going through, believe that the light will come.”
