Nora has been great to work with. It’s been great to have a time and space to sort through my issues in a safe space. From the start, she made me feel comfortable and understood. She has respected my requests and met me where I am. I was initially skeptical about virtual therapy. But, it’s been helpful and the most convenient option for me.

So it’s kinda early for a review but, I really like Nora, she does everything really well, she messages me back quickly (for my schedule) she always helps or steers me in a positive direction, she asks great questions that helps you focus and get you to say what you actually want/need to say. She makes you feel comfortable like and old friend, so I’d recommend anyone to talk to her.

Nora has been a game changer for me. She was my first counselor on here and have been with her ever since. She helps guide and navigate my thoughts. Small progress has created major wins for me in a challenging year. I owe it to her.

I really enjoy speaking with Nora. I was very unsure about speaking with a counselor about my feelings. However, Nora makes me feel comfortable and I do not feel like am being judged. She also assigns homework assignments which really helps me to see and understand things that I am going through. I am happy that I made the decision to join betterhelp.

Ms. Nora was a blessing. I was extremely hesitant in seeking help through a counselor. I’ve never done this before and was afraid of opening up about my personal life to a therapist. But she helped me in many ways. She helped give me tips and strategies to help with my anxiety. She was comforting and reassuring.

My initial experience with online counseling was not great but Nora renewed my trust and faith! Grateful for her and have suggested this form of counseling to three friends!

I was pleasantly surprised how quickly she was able to understand my problem, even though I am from a very unique background, which was my main concern when I signed up.
Listens well, asked the right questions, and reads between the lines.

L. Nora Durand has been an incredible support system and very logical. She helps point out parts of situations that I need to think through. I have been through a lot of counseling and she has been the best so far. Thank you.

Written on Apr 02, 2019 after therapy with L. Nora for 11 months on issues concerning relationship issues, grief, self esteem, and career difficulties

Working with Nora has been life changing for me. When I started working with her last year, I was broken from the sudden and abrupt loss of an ex. I was filled with regret, unrealized grief and pain that I didn't feel like there was an end to. She listened to me, asked me the right questions and it was even more impactful to me because she is also a Christian. Her values and unwavering faith shows in the way that she counsels and it is never pushy or condescending. Without her help, I don't think I would be as present in my life as I am or have such a better handle on life, making it successfully through the stages of grief, fully invested in the present and the well being of my family. For the first time in my life, I am truly experiencing freedom. We get so wrapped up in the traumas we face in life and allow the Devil and those negative experiences to shape the narrative of our lives forgetting we have the power to speak life. I will forever be grateful to Nora and I look forward to exploring more as I uncover more areas of my heart and mind that need healing and my journey of motherhood.

I was going through a tough patch, and I know getting in to a therapist can take weeks, which wasn't going to work. She has been great, and has helped me gain a bit of perspective about my situation. I would recommend her, and this service to anyone that needs to work through some stuff, and can't wait to physically see someone, or have a hard time getting to one with work schedules.

Nora is great. She understands when I need a gentle push to take a step forward but at the same time knows when more time is needed for me to take a step on my own. She's extremely personable and that makes it very easy to become comfortable and really share what's going on. I've grown so much over the past few months and I attribute it to Nora's guidance. Thank you Nora.

Nora Durand has been exceptional in helping me pinpoint my problem areas regarding my anxiety and what triggers it. She has been amazing about checking in when time gets away from me and days lapse. I am new to this process but even in a very short time and only message board sessions I feel such as difference in my ability to take control of my situations and make necessary changes to move forward to a happier healthier existence in my own life.

I feel like she's already helped open my eyes to a lot of new mindsets to reflect upon and help me transform the areas I want to work on. She is very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to start with me and my areas of concern. She lets me talk, but also helps me focus and stay on task without interrupting my thought process.

Written on Mar 29, 2018 after therapy with L. Nora for 3 weeks on issues concerning relationship, grief, intimacy-related, and self esteem

I am extremely happy with Nora's attentiveness, intelligence of processing my concerns, non judgmental tone, and compassion. I have recommend this type of counseling based on my experience with Nora's counseling. I hope if they sign up they get fitted with a counselor that works woth them as well. I also love Nora's flexibility. When I don't get back to her or follow through with some of her suggestions that I intented to do like journal writing she doesn't make me feel pressured but checks in amd encourages progress. I like that because it makes me feel motivated to stick with working though my issues and procrastination. I am hopeful that I will continue this counselling for a long time. It is healthy and I am happy I got fitted with her. Thank you.
