About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very knowledgeable and helpful
Nicole is awesome and brings Faith into my therapy
Nicole is very understanding and helps me work through my issues and come to God led resolution.
I’m so grateful for finding Nicole on better help. She has helped me recognize the false narratives the enemy tries to use against me and uses scripture to reinforce God’s truth. Not only has she helped me grow as a woman of faith, she is also extremely comfortable to talk to, I feel like I’m talking to a friend!
This is my first time ever receiving therapy and with Mrs. Widman, I hope to keep doing therapy. She has helped me grow tremendously towards God . Through her words, you can feel the Lords love pouring out of her and her cup over flows into others. I am so thankful to have such a strong mentor who knows the Lord, for I am also trying to grow in my relationship with Jesus. She prays with me, and also reads scriptures with me. Thank you Jesus for leading me through this journey and for blessing me!
Great person to be around with and share my story. She helped me unpack my past, and confront it. God definitely used her and guide me in my journey of becoming better.
I've only had one session with her but by the end of that session, she understood my needs and gave me great advice to do to deal with my problem. By the end of the session, we were smiling and praising God and it was absolute wonderful! Thank you Nicole. I can't wait for our next session :)
First session with Nicole. I felt she listened very well and seemed very comfortable helping me with my concerns. I felt like I made the right decision in choosing her.
After the second session Nicole, with the help of God as well, was able to pinpoint where all of my pain and depression is coming from. Love Nicole!
Nicole is amazing! She’s a true women of God and I’m beyond thankful for her help.
