He's a great provider! Always punctual, attentive, and offers great resources in my experience that help me understand and grow. He's gentle with how he approaches your struggles, and if you're military, he even has experience working with us.

John has been a breath of fresh air! He picked up on so many little intricacies about me just from our first 45 minute session and that meant a lot to me. I feel so comfortable talking to him about my life and the problems I’m having. He actively listens to my concerns and I never feel like I’m a bother to him. The videos and reading he’s recommended have been incredibly helpful.

John is so easy going and comfortable to talk with. He understands me and he helps me get through my anxiety. He gives me things to read that help me better understand myself. It’s like a light that has finally been turned on. I always felt I never really knew who I was and now I am starting to find myself. He has been so helpful and I am forever grateful.
