I have been searching for a therapist for a while now, I can’t believe how easy it was with better help to find a good match. Austin is great, he listens and ask those questions that make you think, he has great awareness and will point out distorted thinking and hidden fears, he is not one of those passive counselors who only listen to you talk and ask how did this make you feel. He is engaged and I text him any time some thing comes to my mind and he respond timely. It is like you have a great emotional support at your finger tips.

Dr.Kay is the best. He will provide you with methods to improve the situations you are in and really takes the time to listen and is very patient. I clicked with him right away and he changed my life.
