Gordon was an important figure in my recovery process (alcohol). He seemed to understand the challenges of the 12-step program. We grew comfortable enough to discuss some of my marriage and personal issues that contributed to my addiction in the first place.
For me, after detox, rehab (2x), IOP and regular AA meetings, a personal therapy connection was a necessary next step at the right time.

Gordon has been fantastic in guiding me to work through anger issues with a variety of practical tactics as well as preventative practices, in addition to getting to some of the root causes by examining my past. He is respectful and punctual and always follows up, and has good insights on some blind spots I didn't know I had. I would definitely recommend Gordon if you're looking for a therapist!
