Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Deginesh Worku. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Written on Jul 01, 2025 after therapy with Deginesh for 3 weeks on issues concerning relationship

Dr. D Worku has exceeded my expectations. She is comfortable to talk with and creates a safe space for both partners to speak and share their feelings. She always provides helpful tips and things to think about after sessions. I would recommend her to any couple who is looking to progress in their relationship.
