These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joanne Nitchman. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Joanne is amazing. I was very specific on finding a Christian therapist because us Christians get each other on another level. She definitely made me feel super comfortable from the get go. She wasn’t judgmental at all. Spoke her mind and even emphasized some personal experience to help me understand and comprehend things better. Grateful that I got paired with her.

I have had only one session but she seems on point so far. What most individuals don't understand if they have not had this type of therapy is that answers are sometimes difficult to obtain. Joanne so far doesn't parade herself as a solution machine but she seems to provide tools needed for me. That is by far more important than anything roght now.
