GREAT

Written on Jun 06, 2026 after therapy with Nuri for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, career difficulties, and compassion fatigue

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.
