Nicola has been very understanding and patient during our video sessions and did not make me feel shamed or judged with some deeply private things mentioned. She checks in regularly with me via messaging, it's nice to know what she's taking proactive action that way.

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.

Overall rating:
She likes building a relationship first which strengthens trust. She listens attentively and responds based on what you tell her.
Nicola has been very understanding and patient during our video sessions and did not make me feel shamed or judged with some deeply private things mentioned. She checks in regularly with me via messaging, it's nice to know what she's taking proactive action that way.
It is my first time using better help, but I have found it really easy to use. Nicola messaged me to see how I was doing even before we had our initial chat which I thought was really thoughtful and impressive. I have only had one session with her but found she really listened to everything I said and was empathetic. She’s also checked in with me throughout the week which was a lovely surprise and has made me feel well supported. I look forward to more sessions with her.
