Clifford always listened, and makes sure he understands what you’re trying to say. Always has ways to work through issues and suggestions that help to handle things easier. He’s the first therapist that I’ve had confidence in.

Clifford is a very good listener, he's also good at explaining things, and tries his best to make sure that I've understood the concepts and tools he's given me. I really appreciate his practical approach and simple language. Highly recommended.

He is excellent at his craft and I’m most grateful to have him as my therapist!
( letting other people dictate my life & feelings )
I was other focused & falling into an abyss of dark depression; into emotionally self destructive behavior, but he listened to all my concerns & goals.
Because of Clifford Nathaniel, I can now say that I see my light again! I feel strong again! Yellow is bright and blue makes me smile again.
Am I done?
NO, I hope to continue the work started with His help and am grateful to have access to Clifford Nathaniel via BetterHelp!
Today I see the waves of the ocean which is life BUT I HAVE MY SURFBOARD OUT WAXED AND READY!
By grace we are saved!
