This is the first time my therapist hasn't intimidated or belittled my concerns. I am not afraid to tell him and I almost feel like he is the warm hug I needed and that's through the Internet. He is soothing, but also serious. I am happy about working with him and grateful he is willing to share his time and empathy with me.

I had another therapist through BH before Ken and while she was nice I must say Ken is in another league. He is proactive with identifying root problems like childhood trauma and how to address it, sends materials with worksheet assignments, checks in by text regularly even on weekends, and is incredibly empathetic. He takes notes and really invests himself in your well being. I am incredibly grateful to him on my journey to improving myself and how I approach relationships. As a queer, minority woman I wasn’t sure I’d be comfortable with a male therapist but he goes above and beyond to both gently point out areas that may be contributing to my situation and also make me feel empowered to improve myself. He’s also flexible with scheduling and allows bi-monthly hour long sessions. Thank you Ken, you’ve given me a lot of hope regardless of what happens next for me in life.

Kenneth has been a pleasure to work with! He was very open to any suggestions I had and it was very obvious to me that the end goal of each therapy session was for me to feel better and reach a better me by pointing out my strengths. Each weakness can, if channeled correctly, become a strength. This insight was very uplifting for me. Thank you, Ken :)

Kenneth Lingle is admittedly my first experience with a therapist, but his compassion and professional manner was definitely everything I had hoped for. His approach is steady, slow enough to make certain he understands what problems you're dealing with and your feelings on the matter. But he is also firm, assigning achievable homework goals to ensure I continue to improve, no matter how tempting complacency can be. I can't say if he's the best of the best considering my own inexperience, but I'd definitely recommend him for anyone new to counseling. A fantastic example of a great first impression.
