Mauricio Mairena is kind, thoughtful, professional and an all around great resource. He challenges me in the best ways and I actually look forward to our sessions. My original therapist canceled on me the night before I first session and I was totally bummed. However, looking back now. It was all apart of Gods plan and I’m so grateful it worked out the way that they did. “All things work together for the good of them that love the Lord.” Amen.
