Nuri gets me! When choosing a therapist, I look for someone who can identify with my background and understands the challenges I may bring into therapy to work out. Sometimes, you don't know whether it's a fit until after you have a few sessions with your therapist. From the start, I loved how much Nuri could understand where I am coming from, while helping to coach and guide with tools and information to assist in resolving my challenges.

Nuri is extremely thorough in his evaluation and getting to know me as a person before he provides feedback. He is patient and not judgmental.
Written on Apr 17, 2025 after therapy with Nuri for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and anger management
Put me at ease. Was able to quickly identify— without feeling “diagnosed”— that I was overly critical of myself. In his words, “we all have disorders. Don’t over judge yourself”. Passionate. Relatable. Comfortable. Clear but compassionate.
