Brett has been the first therapist to help me go through tough times and deal with my depression. I had started to lose hope but not I am looking forward to our sessions every week and feel so happy afterwards. He knows exactly what to say to me and what questions will trigger me to think. I am grateful to have a therapist like you Brett!

Brett has helped me gain insight into parts of my history and neuro divergent mind that I could never have found just through ‘self-help’ or reading books. He understood my cultural nuances and was deeply empathetic, astute any practical.
