These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Edward Nichols. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I do not believe in coincidence. I lost my father in 2008, I have struggled with so much since his passing because he isn't here to talk to -- and Dr. Nichols gave me looks just like Dad used to. It was like he was channeling my dad. I felt comfortable speaking with him, I just need to figure out how to find my own voice and not be ashamed of my thoughts so I can speak clearly and not sugar my fears and anxiety- I have hope and I have only spoken to him once. I might be hard but to crack, but at least now I know I can open up.
