Dr. Nickson has been very helpful to helping me overcome and understand my doubts and feelings of some of the tough times I have been through, he has also helped me learn more ways of educating myself and believing myself when I have thoughts I know are correct and good!
Dr Nickson is great! He listens and he cares. He provides insightful tips to help you get through your life.
Dr.Nickson never fails to amaze me with how he guides me through this journey of self awareness. He is intentional in getting to know me and pushing me to get to know myself so I understand my struggles and my strengths. I am grateful to have been under his care for the last year, going on two. He is wonderful! And I have developed wonderfully within this time period.
Dr. Nickson is very professional and understanding. Doesn’t make it a problem that you lack the deeper understanding or knowledge beyond the surface level of things.
Considerate and patient
The the type of therapist who truly can meet you on your level, then can teach you the skills to find your own answers and navigate to higher peaks and thrive!
I have seen several therapists throughout my life and I’ve always looked for someone who not only will listen, but is open to giving feedback, even when it may be tough to hear. I have been extremely impressed and very comfortable in working with Dr. Nickson. I feel heard and seen and in a safe space to share my deepest thoughts and feelings, without fear of judgment or criticism. It feels like I’m speaking with a trusted, well educated friend as opposed to just someone I’m paying to listen to me. I would highly recommend Dr. Nickson to anyone seeking therapy who is going through a rough patch, negative patterns, or even needs help becoming the best version of yourself.
I have really enjoyed therapy with Dr. Nickson so far. Our sessions always flow so well which is important to me. He not only is a great listener, he also challenges and encourages me to reach my best potential for myself on this journey. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great therapist.
He is a rock star. Getting to know anyone takes a while. He got to know me. I got to know him. He’s a genuine dude with genuine care and concern and empathy for me. I consider him a friend that helps me be a better friend to everyone else.
Very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, but also challenging when needed.
Dr. Nickson takes his role as therapist very professionally, but with that being said his role as a supportive person makes you feel as ease and pleasantly pushes you into the right direction of becoming the most authentic version of you.
Dr. Nickson is awesome. Not only is he a good listener and fun conversationalist but he knows when to ask a thought-provoking question and give helpful professional advice. He also picks up on the self-destructive patterns I have and helps hold me accountable to make better decisions and grow in confidence and happiness.
Dr. Nickson is responsive and highly supportive of me. He is good at reading when I get overwhelmed, and works with me to create manageable intervals and milestones for change.
He is a wonderful Dr and has helped me and my partner tremendously. Would refer him to any friend.
Amazing! Knowledgable and a great listener!
He’s been great since I’ve started, and continues to be great!
Dr. Nickson is extremely knowledgeable, understanding, and caring. He does a great job of leading you to the answers that you seek without telling you what you need to do which is awesome. He has helped me grow tremendously
Dr. Nickson has helped me through many tough situations. He listens well and not only gives direction and an alternate pov, but teaches skills that I can take with me in the future!
He is amazing
Great Therapist, Listens well. Summarizes what you said to make sure he understands what you are trying to say.
Dr. Nickson has been so helpful to my husband and me. He is able to listen to new issues and still bring in old topics of discussion that relate and bring clarity to situations. He is always so positive and helpful. He is supportive of us as a couple but also acknowledges our individual feelings and brings all of it together to help us be better as a couple. I would highly recommend him to any couple in need of direction. He is a true blessing to us.
Having never done therapy before, I knew there was gonna be a lot of learning when it comes to being vulnerable, a lot of trust to be built to feel confident in sharing so much about my life to better myself, and Dr. Nickson has helped me to grow by teaching me the skills needed to conquer my anxiety and live a much fuller life. Therapy was the best decision for me and Dr. Nickson has been amazing to work with.
He is very helpful and understanding. He has a way with words that you feel like you are heard. Strongly recommend to others.
Dr. Nickson has supported me through what is the most challenging time of my life. His wisdom, kindness, and guidance have brought me through some of my life's most difficult days.
I’ve met with several different therapist over the years and Dr. Nickson is hands down the best I’ve come across. He is the sole reason I continue to use teen counseling. He has helped me tremendously since I started seeing him. I can’t recommend him enough. If you find yourself on the fence on switching therapist or are looking for a new one. Give Dr. Nickson a go. I highly doubt you’ll be disappointed.
I can feel a positive shift in the atmosphere in our house since we started therapy. I actually feel excited about our future again since we started our therapy.
Dr. Nickson, is the best! Highly recommend 10/10.
Great has helped me a lot
Dr. Nickson is proactive and reaches out when he feels his client could use a hand. He has helped me through trauma and depressive symptoms.
Dr. Nickson is great!
Having Dr. Nickson as a therapist is like meeting up with that one friend you haven’t seen in forever. You talk, you laugh, maybe even cry, but at the end of the day it’s someone you know you can ultimately rely on to steer you in the right direction. He doesn’t let his own opinions bias your problems, but rather he expands your field of vision to allow you to see your problems from another POV so that you can come together as a team to solve them.
You have to experience for yourself he is the best 100%
Best therapist I’ve ever had. He is knowledgeable and relates to his patients in the best way possible. Highly recommend.
First ever therapy session and it was great! Since speaking to Dr. Nickson. I’ve been In a happier state and sober! Great times to book for those that have a tight schedule as well!
A great listener, good friend.
Extremely professional
Dr. Nickson is a patient, calm and kind presence in my journey. His energy matches mine well and his guidance through my therapy has been deeply felt. I am most appreciative of his well timed and thoughtful questions that lead me to self discovery of truths that help shape a more positive view of myself, my history and my future. He is a good mentor and companion on my journey and I am very thankful for our conversations.
I really appreciate Dr. Nickson. He’s understanding and offers a great safe space!
Dr. Nickson has been very helpful and understanding. His attitude towards things helps us to discuss difficult topics with a sense of calmness. I always look forward to our sessions together.
I really appreciate his insight on the issues I discuss with him. He is really great at what he do and I would recommend him to others
Dr. Nickson is extremely kind and supportive, he’s a great listener and he’s good feedback and suggestions for us every session.
I’d recommend 1000 times over.
Dr. Nickson provides great insight an empathy. He is aware that everyone's journey is different.
Dr. Nickson is a great therapist! I enjoyed how he was able to translate my thoughts and feelings into simple terms that I could focus on and seek growth from. He is very easy to talk to and the sessions always seemed to go by very quickly. I definitely recommend!
Dr. Nickson is an excellent listener and listens with full understanding! Very professional and provides guidance that works! You can tell he's focused on his client and that's important to me.
I haven’t known him long but he helped me through a rather difficult time involving family. He made me feel comfortable enough to open up about topics that I would otherwise never address. If you have trouble with anxiety I would definitely recommend him. :)
Dr. Nickson, is a wonderful human who listens and pays attention to detail when listening to his clients. He make sure you won't put excuses and helps you identify the issue you are facing. Whether it's several or getting the focus on the one topic. His patience and understanding is something to admire especially when coming into therapy for the first time and trying to also figure out how to share and confront certain obstacles. This has been my first time having therapy and having a therapist and to be honest I'm glad I got someone like the doc. Thank you Dr. Nickson.
He’s here to listen to you and direct you in the right path
He really listens and brings actionable ways for me to change thinking patterns.
He is extremely helpful and thoughtful. He gave me some excellent ideas and skills to use in difficult situations. All the love and respect to him.
I love Dr. Nickson, he’s great! Very grateful we got matched with him and he provides us with wonderful guidance and advice!
Thank you very much Dr. Nickson!
Dr. Nickson is a great resource to help me gain better understand of personal cognizance and what I need to do for a better lifestyle change through the ability to get barriers broken down and building personal awareness.
Where do I start? Dr. Nickson could not be more helpful, and is very supportive but also expects me to hold up my end of the bargain. I enjoy having someone challenge me to be better. He helps me to set goals for myself that are attainable, and this approach has started to help me see that I can do better for myself. He also checks in with me regularly through the teen counseling app to see how I am progressing and is very quick to respond when I send him a message. He makes you feel like old friends.
