I’m incredibly relieved to have found a therapist who is such a wealth of information and empathy. Since talking with AJ I’ve noticed a real improvement in my everyday life. I’m much better equipped to manage my past trauma, grief and the stressful stage of life I’m in with caregiving demands.

AJ is amazing! Very positive, empathetic but still willing to challenge my beliefs. He has helped me greatly to understand some unconscious thoughts and feelings that I’ve been on autopilot with and that has improved my life.
Thanks AJ!

Written on Dec 07, 2023 after therapy with Alfred (AJ) for 10 months on issues concerning relationship issues, and trauma and abuse
I’ve seen quite a few therapists. It’s been a rough life. AJ is by far the most effective and compassionate therapist I have ever worked with. Over this last year, he has helped me through a traumatic life experience and I owe him so much for the ways he listened, gave me things to read, shared techniques, and checked in regularly. He remembers everything I tell him, including names and incidents, and helps me to see those things in ways that contribute to improved mental health and confidence in myself. I highly recommend working with him.

I’ve been communicating with AJ for months at this point. My life has taken a turn for the worse lately, but that doesn’t mean my mindset has to. I express my problems to AJ, and he responds with wisdom and strength and resources, etc. I have absolutely no idea what I would do without this guy. Even my worst of feelings are mended with the help of AJ. I brag about him all of the time. I couldn’t do anything without him.

With AJ as my therapist, I feel heard when I share my concerns and in the kindest way, I’m pushed to grow and address my thoughts and feelings. I feel safe to talk about my life and like I will receive the help needed when I ask for it. I appreciate it greatly.
