A few years ago I had a massive panic attack at an airport. Needless to say after that, my life was never the same. I couldn’t leave my house for an entire year, not even to see a therapist in person. Luckily, I found better help and they connected me with Mark. After the first session I already had. A weight lifted off my shoulders. Recovery from my incident wasn’t an easy path, but Mark was there through it all and he literally saved me from a life of being stuck indoors and not seeing friends and experiencing things. Thanks to his help, I was able to slowly make my way out more and now I am traveling and living life and setting big goals. I literally owe my life to him. I would not be where I am today without his help.

Mark has been my counselor for many seasons. He is great at celebrating my success and helping me see them in a new light. Mark also keeps me accountable by checking in what we discuss in previous sessions. He is equal parts validating and inquisitive as he guides me towards realizations I haven't noticed myself. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a counselor!

Sometimes in life I have found that you need help; hard to do in your hometown and you do not want to burden your friends with all the things you are trying to process.You need to reach out and start to articulate where you are now. This has been hard for me during everything that is going on because the last thing I wanted to do was talk about it or put it into words but I am slowly feeling like this is a very valuable process and I am grateful my daughter helped me find this outlet and great resource. It is never easy but becomes easier as you reach out.
