These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Georgios Nikolaou. 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.
He's someone who I feel comfortable with (to the extent that ANY therapy feels comfortable!)

Never considered doing therapy before but very glad I did. Been speaking with Georgios weekly now since the new year and has been amazing. Is very considerate and informative no matter what the topic is. Always offers hand outs and information outside the sessions as well so although I don’t always utilise him, I know he is always there whenever I need him.

It’ll be my 4th session with Georgios today and I can whole heartedly say that my experience so far has been great. I feel heard, been given advice and have managed to book in a last minute session as well. Definitely recommend

Professional and conscientious. George listens well and responds with his wealth of knowledge. Providing material to watch and read inbetween sessions he thinks would be relevant to my needs.
