I am glad that I was connected to Gerald.
I was undiagnosed adult ADHD and I am a masking type. I was diagnosed by a psychiatrist one year before I met Gerald, however, my psychiatrist didn't recommend me to initiate the ADHD medication as I had "mild symptoms".
I wouldn't know that my internal problems were somewhat associated with untreated ADHD if it weren't for Gerald. He guided me through a way to reconnect with myself by understanding my true self while recommending I seek the proper method to treat my underlying risk factor - which in my case, ADHD.
I am still on the journey to embrace myself but I can tell that my journey would have been much slower or even would not have started if I hadn't discussed my problems with Gerald.
Gerald might say that it was all me who achieved it but I really want to appreciate his companionship to support my journey. Thank you, Gerald.

Over the years I have had need for counselling on more than one or two occasions. None have been as productive as those with Gerald. His kindness and professional manner gave me a lot of confidence to stay with him and to pay attention . Sessions with Gerald are times I look forward to.

Gerald is a patient man and a good listener. I appreciate a little bit of structure, and his use of both conversation and 'take home' worksheets actually made it easy for me to articulate what my real insecurities were.
Our interaction has been something transformational for me, and I am truly in a better place in my life with my friends and family than before I met Gerald.

Very intuitive, clear with his approach, supportive, helps you with finding what your goals should be and how to navigate and grow to get there. So far all my sessions have been eye opening.
