Elrick is great at listening and connecting the dots and then sharing his own experiences and stories that directly relate to yours. He is more than willing to put in the extra work to help his patience and approaches counselling in a very direct, realistic, but kind way. His sense of humour and ability to laugh is refreshing and helps to lighten the mood.
