Nisha is so kind. She listens attentively and realizes a lot of what I need is to work things out externally and she gives me that space and asks poignant questions to guide me through it. Nisha keeps me headed in the direction of progress with gentle and reassuring nudges. I can't recommend her enough

Nisha has been such a light at the end of the tunnel for me since I began my therapy journey with Better Help. I’ve never felt more validated, respected and supported by a therapist in my life. I come with a lot of trauma and baggage, and Nisha has helped me reflect and dig deep to understand where my past experiences overlap with current challenges, and helps me set realistic goals to address them. She checks in with me every week, in between sessions, to further emphasize her care and dedication to my ongoing therapy goals and active challenges, whatever they may be at that time. I’m sure many clients of Better Help who’ve had similar experiences to mine say this, but I really do believe I have the BEST therapist on the app.
Thank you Nisha for your selflessness, kindness and overwhelming wisdom. You have changed my life in ways you could never know!

Nisha cultivates the outmost safe, calm and nurturing space for me to fully share my inner thoughts and feelings. She has a gentle, non-judgemental approach to therapy, and she truly allows you to move and open up at your own pace. You can feel that Nisha genuinely cares for your healing journey and is there with you every step of the way. I appreciate Nisha so much for allowing me grace and space to grow and shed light into parts where its difficult to tred alone.

Nisha is empathetic she has a non-judgmental approach that has created a safe and comfortable environment, allowing me to openly discuss my challenges and work through them.
I am grateful for her ability to listen actively and provide thoughtful feedback that has been invaluable in helping me gain a deeper understanding of myself and my emotions.
The various tools and techniques she has shared with me have been instrumental in managing my emotions and improving my mental well-being.
Session with her has helped me develop a greater sense of self-awareness and self-regulation, which has enabled me to handle difficult situations more effectively.
