As the trauma which forced me to get help in the first place is starting to move in my rear view mirro my therapist is coming into focus as an actual person, The inital chronic anxiety is to my utter delight not part of my day to day now. Yes it has taken about 16 sessions to get to today - it is really weird to feel so much more emotionally able. Who knew that a proper therapist could work such a magic. Clearly I had not known that for and so struggled on for decades. If you are reading this wondering if its worth a shot, then please love yourself enough to at leat give yourself a chance .

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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.

Nicolette is an excellent therapist that understood/ understands what I need to speak about and gives me helpful insight and advice on my problems i am working through. I couldn’t recommend Nicolette more highly
Nicolette has changed my life for the better. I can’t think of a stronger recommendation than that
Nic is so compassionate and has a very thoughtful way of supporting me to move through psychological challenges. Her therapy has really helped me reach the next level as a performer and I am very grateful for her!
Have been having therapy for a while now, and it has really helped me. Nicolette made me feel really comfortable, better help and Nicolette I'd recommend highly
I feel very seen by Nicolette and after every session at ease and solid in myself, especially when I have an issue and feel anxious. She is very empathic and supportive and is always able to provide the help I need in that moment. I am really grateful to have her as my therapist and appreciate the positive impact she has ok me as a person.
Talking about my situation and getting thoughtful feedback helps me to figure out my actual goal and next steps. I feel heard and the sessions are a great support. Thanks a lot
Understanding, practical, realistic expectations
Nicolette has become a trusted confident and friend. She is smart, well informed , experienced , supportive, and a pleasure to talk to. She has improved my personal situation immeasurably.
Nicolette has quickly become a trusted voice in my life and she’s helped me to trust myself again and to regain (or in some cases, grow) strength where I didn’t think it had it. I feel Nicolette has fostered a collaborative approach to my progress and helps me see the routes to improvement. She is a wonderful guide and helps me to make sense of my emotions and the inner workings of my brain.
She is very good at listening and understanding, especially I feel validated by her. She is very empathic and knows when it’s time to listen or giving advice, especially she’s amazing with encouraging! After Therapie with her I feel quite solid in myself and relived or more secure. I really appreciate her as my therapist!!
Nicolette is tremendously patient, knowledgeable, empathetic, helpful and always there. She has begun to feel like a rock to me and I already feel a sense of security and improvement and that is entirely down to her kindness, wit and professionalism.
I am still very much in my early stages, but I feel that Nicolette understands what I am sharing even when I don’t articulate very well. She is helpful in helping me to address patterns and connections and has such a calming and personable manner - it makes it so easy to talk openly without fear of judgement. I have a long route ahead, but I feel like Nicolette is going to help me every step of the way. Thank you so much.
She is very attentive and remembers everything you have talked about over time. She draws a line between the sessions which is very helpful to see the bigger picture. She is kind and full of empathy. Encourageing you to take use of the extra benefits of writing inbetween sessions and she makes you feel like she really care .
Nicolette has been essential to me and my well being thid past year. After losing my grandad, father and having a very abusive work relationship she helped me through those issues as they were happening and the traumas they left me with, getting to know me and find ways of thinking and changing my habits in a way that I could be happier and have more focus on myself and not others.
So far a few weeks in with Nic and I feel that she has already gotten to the cruxes of my issues. So far I have found therapy very reflective and helpful.
Nicolette is an amazing therapist, she truly listens and knows me even in the short amount of time we've been together. She helped me and is helping me through the lost of my dad and I don't think I would be as happy and balanced today if it weren't for her. Truly thankful I found her.
Because the mental health sector in my homecountry could not provide any help I contacted betterhelp.com and matched with Nicolette. She asked me the right questions that no therapist told me before after three decades of therapies. Now I feel much better and have a feeling of walking on the right path. Thank you Nicolette!
Awesome therapist. She’s perfectly helping me finding the way to myself.
Nicolette has been a rock to me over the last few weeks. She completely understands my situation and has helped me enormously. I’m very thankful.
Thanks for your thoughtful questions
Nicolette was the first therapist that made me really think about some questions in years.
I found Nicolette when I was struggling and feeling very alone and overwhelmed. She offered a safe space and contained my difficult emotions. I really found her reflections on what I am going through and how she verbalized it, to help me zoom out and take a deep breath. I know that the next time I will need help, I will seek Nicolette.
Nicolette and I hit it off really well. I'm enjoying my sessions and look forward to each one! She's contributed majorly to helping me sift through my thoughts and she always seems to give me great advice when it's needed.
Very helpful, respectful, supportive and understanding therapist!
