Nicole has been and continues to be a God send for me. She has helped me so much. She has given me the courage to continue living my life in the present. Although I continue to grieve the loss of My Beautiful Daughter, she has made it easier for me to live my life without her. I'm not saying it's not still hard, but I'm finally looking forward to the next day.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I've had 2 sessions with Nicole and she makes me feel comfortable to talk to her
Nicole is an absolute professional while providing the warmth and charm of a close confidante. She has helped me navigate childhood trauma, breakups, anxiety, depression, and more without judgment. She always encouraged me to look at situations through a different lens, and I am so grateful for her insight
Very good listener. Lots of feedback.
Great job. Always checks in with you
She is always understanding of whatever I bring up in our sessions together. She has been able to give me tools to work through some of the concerns I bring to our sessions that are applicable to every day scenarios and always reaches out to me for updates. I very much appreciate her.
Nicole has been a great help in my mental journey and has provided multiple facets into helping me better my situations and perceptions of how things can get better, i felt heard and seen.
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.
I feel so fortunate to have found Nicole. She has been an incredible therapist and source of support and solace in my time of need. We’ve only had three sessions but I already feel healthier, more centered, more grounded.
Nicole is absolutely amazing! With her I feel like I can be open and brutally honest with my troubles. She listens and gives me tools and tricks that can help me. So happy that I found Nicole when I did.
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 tell all my friends and I try to get people to give it a try. When they’re ready I guess but for me it’s been a it’s been a game changer.
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.
She is very caring, supportive, and respectful! She is always looking out and wanting the best for you!
I have been working with Nicole for a couple of months now and this is the first time I’ve ever gotten something substantial and healing from therapy. Coworkers are asking me what’s changed and I’ve shared with them my experience with my therapist in BetterHelp. I am excited to continue and hopeful for my future. I am very grateful to my therapist for her understanding, and, trust that I have with her. Although I came here in pain, it was definitely worth it. The healing I am experiencing and the change that I’m feeling is priceless.
Nicole is an excellent therapist who listens intently to me. She gives me clear and practical guidance on ways to think about and handle my concerns. I would highly recommend her.
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. She is extremely responsive and listens to what I’m trying to explain and walks me through things that may be overwhelming at times. I appreciate her and my experience with her has been amazing.
Nicole is a fantastic therapist and always listens wholeheartedly and provides tools need for self growth. I couldn't imagine having another therapist. She is amazing, kind, supportive and always there for my needs.
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.
Nicole is both a great support and extremely knowledgeable. She has been such a big help with my problems, she understands my issues as a veteran and has help with the pressures of being a new father.
I found Nicole to be easy to talk to I felt as if she truly cared. I felt she was very knowledgeable about my addiction issues and my food problems. I’m hopeful and look forward to meeting with her again. She also had a very kind face.
Nicole has helped me to get myself through a very difficult chapter in my life. She taught me the value of perspective and self respect. I cannot express how thankful I am for the work she has done. You're in good hands.
Nicole is amazing. I love out sessions together.
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.
She communicates well and provides wonderful insight and encouragement.
Thankful for Nicole.
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 has been extremely effective as a therapist, she listens and provides constructive feedback which is helpful and needed. The reflective dialogue allows you to see a different perspective which gives you the ability to change, reframe and review your thoughts, feelings and emotions so you have better understanding of yourself. Absolutely fantastic and would recommend her to all you want help in journey to self awareness.
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.
I had a disappointing previous experience with therapy, so I approached my first session with Nicole apprehensively. I am so grateful to say that my nervousness was unwarranted. Nicole is engaging, insightful, and within the first few minutes of our session I knew that I was going to have a helpful, healing session. Thank you for your help, Nicole!
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!
