"I was completely out of this marriage, and only showed up because I wanted a professional to tell us it was over. Now, I couldn't love my wife more, and I couldn't love my life more. I thank Dr. Nick for this."
GG
"No matter how many times he should have, Dr. Wilkens never gave up on me and I can't thank him enough."
TA
"Dr. Wilkens literally saved my life."
CF
"I love him because of his sense of humor, and how it became viral between my husband and I. We left every session laughing, which brought us so much closer together."
FD
"Dr. Nick is clearly highly educated. But I think it doesn't matter how much yours therapist know unless you know how much they care. Dr. Nick met both of these requirements. Big time."
TK
"He is worth every penny and every minute you spend with him."
VC
"We came in for marriage counseling, as a last resort for both of us. Dr. Nick didn't try to talk us into staying together, but helped us clarify how we felt and how we could move forward with our kids as a divorced couple. I will never be able to repay him for that."
JL
"I was initially very turned off by the fact that he didn't take insurance, but I soon learned why. He has helped make me a better person, and I will be eternally grateful."
LG
"I walked in with the worst case of OCD ever. I walked out with no symptoms and no intrusive thoughts, and knowing what I needed to do if they ever came back."
RO
