Excellent

Dr. Hopson is a very patient, professional, and adaptive. He was my first match, and I have stuck with him for almost two years. He will respond to urgent messages quickly. Other messages he responds in a timely manner. I really appreciate how he has been able to adjust his schedule to match mine at times that I was unable to reschedule our sessions. He is considerate but also lets you know when you are not being considerate. I appreciate his honesty and his professionalism.

Our sessions were very useful - covering valuable topics and insights. Thank you for your energy and commitment guiding me through my issues.

Wonderful therapist! Understood my needs very well and guided me though in a very professional way.

He is very good in providing you the tools that you need . I really appreciate Dr Hopson.

Excellent therapist that gives you the perfect balance of understanding and clarity for your life.

Love him

I am so grateful for Dr. Hopson’s help. His expertise has been life changing. Together with the work I have committed to, I have been able to see dramatic changes in my life. A true blessing. Thank you!

We haven’t had enough time to give him a score on knowing me. I am happy with t the match thus far, though.

Supreme understanding

Dr. Hopson is very good at detecting faulty thought patterns and bringing his theoretical knowledge into practice, which helps you understand the reasons behind these patterns. This helped me to be more stable and less worried in general. It sparked confidence, which sparked self-initiative, which allowed me to put myself out more and ultimately get rid of my most severe problems with social interactions.

An all round good guy ..listens and provides very good gentle advice..highly recommend

Thoughtful. Gentle. Empathetic. A great therapist and wonderful man.

I strongly suggest Dr. Hopson as a therapist. He is a great listener! He has helped me in so many ways. I didn't really believe that therapy would work for me but Dr. Hopson changed my mind. It does work. He is excellent and very professional.

I'm so grateful to have found Dr.Hopson on better help. I have finally found a therapist who has contributed a positive change to my life. So glad to be guided by him on my pursuit to a happier and healthier lifestyle.

He’s great! It’s nice to talk to someone who doesn’t know me and actually listens and gives an honest opinion wether if I’m the problem or not. Helps letting my frustrations out!

Dr. Hopson is professional, upbeat, and persistent with his method in our counselling sessions. I feel like he's a strong anchor during my personal ups and downs. I have been in sessions with him for about 4-6 months now, and the one lasting impact I feel from him is his positive tone during our conversations.

I have 'collected' a lot of trauma in my life: toxic childhood, a long-term relationship involving mental and physical abuse, as well as being sexually assaulted. I couldn't live in peace because of constant flashbacks. Signing up for this therapy, I didn't expect much; I knew I needed help, but I felt unfixable. I am not religious, but meeting Dr. Hopson was a bit like a gift from heaven. I remember that when he introduced himself and started to explain the journey we will follow together, I have already started sobbing because I felt right there and then that it will have a profound effect on me. Only a few months later, I can say that nothing haunts me anymore. I have come to terms with the things that have happened to me. As I learned how to react to flashbacks, they slowly stopped coming. I have also received powerful tools that helped me realize how to be assertive in everyday life from now on. If you are severely traumatized, Dr. Hopson is a great choice. It was so worth it. Bonus: he has a great sense of humor and often made me cry from laughter right after crying from pain, with a relevant joke or two, which was cathartic on its own. I am taking a pause, but if I ever need therapy again, I only want it to be Dr. Hopson. All the best to you!

Dr. Hopson is so knowledgeable and caring. I really appreciate his deep insights, and look forward to working with him further!

Dr. Hopson is very thorough. He listens to each detail and slows you down to make sure he understands what you are saying before continuing on to the next comment or question. I have had therapy in past years but I feel Dr. Hopson has much more experience helping people understand what happened helping them sort through their feelings so they can progress to the next level.

A little more strength in the mind, but minor compared to others, he is very understanding and helpful and an ear for a minority I hope regardless of whatever minority that is.

I am so grateful for Dr. Hopson’s help. His expertise has helped free me from a lifetime of abuse. His continued guidance is helping me to now focus on thriving. Thank God for his skills.

He is someone who makes a comfortable environment and can make me laugh. I was nervous about starting counseling and we took it slow and he was able to listen and encourage to continue to be brave.

Dr. Hopson's impact on my life has been astounding. He has helped guide me in many ways and I am extremely grateful for his help. His approach is honest yet sincere and he has a very good way of helping you see outside of your own perspective and delivering necessary truths. Very happy to have worked with him. Thank you Dr Hapson!

Dr. Hopson is A wonderful Counsellor. He listened to all my problems and able to help me internalized them. I am not good at expressing myself, but he knows how to bring all these emotions out from me. I have grown a lot and healed a lot of my childhood and recent Traumatic experiences. He taught me most about being a mindful and assertive person. I have a lot of dark personalities, and yet he is still very Compassionate toward me. I'm keeping betterhelp because of him.

Dr Hopson is a truly wonderful human and counsellor. I've been dealing with severe addictions for numerous years, and in just a couple sessions he has helped me identify deep rooted patterns of thinking and showing me a way out of my mess. He also helps me have a good chuckle at times and most importantly fills me with hope and real practical steps to live a better life.

I am so grateful for the help Dr. Hopson has given. The knowledge of the issues has been heaven sent. The true effectiveness of therapy largely depends on how much work I devote to the process. The help he has given me during this time has truly changed my life. A big thank you to him and Better Help.
