Nicole is an absolute gem. Her patience is unmatched. I haven’t been with her long, she listens and is able to help unpack things I never knew I packed. The tools and homework she’s provided have been very helpful in my day to day. She’s the best.

The trust that I have built with Nicole the first for me. I’ve never felt understood or comfortable safe with the therapist like I have with Nicole. She responds to me in a timely manner when I’m in crisis she is very available. She also is able to give me clarity and helpful tips to get through any madness. I might be involved in right now I’m going through a lot of personal relationship issues and I’m so grateful to have better life in Nicole in my life.

I have been so grateful to be paired with Nicole. I consider myself to be a resilient person, but after experiencing three traumatic events in 6 months, I reached out to Better Help for support. Nicole helped me to identify that what I perceived to be the primary causes of stress in my life were actually secondary to something I had internally compartmentalized. Talking to her is like talking to a much wiser friend--no judgment, just inquiry, honesty, and genuine empathy. I am so appreciative to have her support.

Nicole is amazing. She’s the first therapist I’ve had where I feel like I’m truly heard and cared about. She recognizes what I may not be able to and helps me approach it in a way that helps me.

In the past I've found tele-health/tele-therapy services challenging, because I didn't feel like my therapist was truly present and engaged in the conversation or remembered anything about me by the next session due to the volume of clients they were seeing. But since starting sessions with Nicole, she's completely changed my entire perspective on virtual therapy.

Nicole is EXTREMELY attentive, fully engaged, totally present, remembers things from our previous conversations, genuinely cares, makes me feel like she wants to be there and WANTS to help me. On top of the fact that she asks really good questions and offers genuinely really good feedback...ALL with a sense of humor and playful fun. I feel like she's a friend, but yet doesn't let me off easy and still pushes me to ask myself tough questions. I brag to all of my friends and family about how great Nicole is and I hope to continue sessions with her for a long time to come.

I've never been in therapy before. Finding myself completely lost, a friend recommended finding someone to talk to. Not wanted to make the leap into finding someone local, I wanted to start with Better Help. I was matched with Nicole and had my first session. Not knowing what to expect, Nicole quickly calmed my nervousness and made me feel at ease. She was so gentle, understanding and caring and just listened to me. That was what I needed for the first time. We already have another session scheduled.

I've been to several therapists, all of them good in their own way, but Nicole has been the most uplifting, empowering, and insightful. I'm so grateful for the sessions we've had together. I feel that she listens to me and can even hear the things that I can't quite say out loud. I would 100% recommend her as a therapist.

Nicole is great. We've had one session but she really helped me understand where I'm at in life and that how I'm feeling is ok and not just in my head. Scheduling session number two now.

She's incredibly thoughtful and considerate. I know she's really listening to me because of the way she reflects back. She challenges me in the best way possible and makes it a comfortable environment where I can open up about anything. She's helped me through some very difficult situations and regain my calm. Thank you Nicole for everything!
