Great discussion and solutioning. It's hard to find a therapist or counselor you connect with and I think Dr. Banak really works to connect and understand while helping you find solutions that are repeatable and helpful. Fantastic support, guidance, and listening. Really makes the whole experience way less awkward and much more comfortable.
