Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Eric Richardson. 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.
Eric is absolutely phenomenal!
This is my first time committing to therapy and he has made me very comfortable… He truly has a gift to carefully listen and provides great analogies that you personally can relate with, to convey a point.
Plus… I don’t write reviews, that’s how highly recommended Eric is in my book.
The man is incredible. Period.
I am +40y and never had a therapy experience before. To be honest, I was quite skeptical when I started. However after just few sessions with Eric, the only question I had was: why it took me so long!?
Thank you for all the wisdom and the support!
Eric has a been a godsend. He’s an expert and has been able to showcase great care and support for me during this time in my life. He’s a trustworthy, honest therapist and I have developed great deal of respect for his counsel. If you are looking for help to figure out the next best step- talk to Eric.
Mr. Richardson is a great listener. He allows you to talk and then offers his assessment which is generally spot on.
Eric is very caring and genuine. Seems like such a great person
Awesome therapist! He gives you the tools you need to be successful
Time well spent
Mr Eric Richardson is great even though our time together has been brief I can tell that he is knowledgeable in his field and that he really loves what he does. I highly recommend him!!!
Very good person to talk to.
Dr. Richardson has been amazing for me. It’s only been two weeks, but he helps me focus on discovering my God-given purpose and helps me spend time thinking about how to be intentional about bringing the best out of each member of my family.
Very wise and tells it like it is. Gives. Very good and useful advice
He is a great guy and provides different perspectives on anything you are going through. Would recommend.
Eric has been a fantastic therapist. Our relationship is just beginning but already he has really helped me to begin unpacking some of the most difficult relationships in my life.
Mr. Richardson is very helpful. I also appreciate his conversational style therapy. It really allows you to open up.
Eric Richardson is incredibly intuitive and uses humor and stories very effectively to help patients develop insight. He is patient and thoughtful in his approach.
Thanks Eric. Within two sessions I was able to understand and come to terms of my feelings. There was a breakthrough and I am appreciative.
He’s awesome!
Eric is knowledgeable and a blessing to humanity. After few sessions with him, I could see the light coming on. Thank you for being a great resource and well of knowledge
Eric's wisdom is a beacon for those who need direction to move forward in life with positive experiences, and how to handle those moments when things don't quite go your way. I highly recommend. Especially for those who want a christian based perspective.
I enjoyed my first session with Eric… He made everything feel completely normal and I was ok with opening up to him about anything… I strongly recommend him for any therapy needed…
He listens and lets you know it’s alright to be feeling the way you are but offers a listening ear it’s refreshing to have someone who you can confide in
Eric listens and gives great advice. Sometimes it’s nice to have a friendly ear to listen and reassure you. He helps me figure out the puzzle pieces of life.
My first experience with therapy was with Eric and I could not have found a more impactful individual. Eric listens but is also curious to help, we worked through addiction and confidence setbacks. I would recommend Eric to anyone as his treatment greatly helped me to improve my well being!
Eric, is amazing. It's obvious to me he's an expert at his craft. He has given me new perspectives on many of the issues I personally face. He really makes me think about how I feel about certain issues, and why I feel that way. He makes me look at the things that bother me, and helps me understand why they bother me. It's astounding to me how quickly I've seen progress in my mental state, just by willing to try and follow his suggestions. I'm really glad I decided to reach out to him.
I have enjoyed talking with him, he's personable and he's so easy to talk to. Couldn't ask for a nicer therapist.
Amazing therapist!! You have been tremendous sir! Thank you for everything!
Eric is very sharp. After a single session, we are already working through reframing my thoughts. Seeking help with trauma, but also receiving help about work. I will say other counselors have been more flexible with schedule.
Extremely helpful and exceedingly knowledgeable! Definitely a wise brother in Christ!
Eric is a great listener and makes you feel at ease in his therapy approach. He listens, is empathetic and I appreciate his use of faith to bolster the therapy experience. I am very glad he was assigned to me during this difficult season in my life.
Best therapist I’ve ever had.
Strongly understands my concerns and helps me works through my issues. Goes above and beyond and responds very quickly. Can’t suggest him enough.
He is very knowledgeable, empathetic and hands on in his approach. I left my first few sessions with techniques that I can use daily.
