Elrick is great at listening and connecting the dots and then sharing his own experiences and stories that directly relate to yours. He is more than willing to put in the extra work to help his patience and approaches counselling in a very direct, realistic, but kind way. His sense of humour and ability to laugh is refreshing and helps to lighten the mood.

Elrick is a wise and compassionate individual. He has a unique ability to express his perspective in ways that even a best friend might not. He has helped me understand so much about my own psyche. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist, especially with a similar background to me.

I've spoken to Elrivk twice do far and have had great results both times. He's really good and bringing things into perspective and stopping a ruminating spiral. I love his real world examples and sense of humor.

Elrick is a kind and compassionate individual. But is not afraid to tell you how it is either. He is comforting when he needs to be and assertive when he needs to correct your thinking. He has strong conviction when it comes to Christian morals and principles in guiding his therapy sessions, but I would recommend him even if you are not Christian as well.

He speaks like he is carrying on a conversation rather than telling me what to do. He discusses and makes suggestions.

Elrick was my first therapist and I got pretty lucky. Top notch work. He is able to relate in so many ways. Diligent on helping you along your path. Very great experience and always has a good attitude.

I really enjoyed my sessions with Elrick. He is always full of energy and ready to listen to what I have to say. He has a unique ability to break down situations and help me understand how to set boundaries. I would highly recommend him as a therapist.

Our sessions have helped me become a better person, a better and more productive human. I find myself very optimistic towards life, I’m now better at handling pressure, stress and I’m doing better in my studies. I would highly recommend Elrick Nelson and have him as my therapist much longer.
