Life sometimes can be challenging and over whelming. Many who attempt to navigate the course of life are sometimes discouraged, worried, and left with feeling of hopelessness. Yes, life is challenging and sometimes the vision for our lives are sometimes blurred; it is in these moments of uncertainty that we need an empathetic and caring person to affirm us and give us support for the challenges that we must face and overcome. I've learned early in life two powerful lessons: #1. "Never stop hoping" and #2."Your past does not equal your future."

Famous is very faithful to God and his clients, a wonderful prayer warrior. Our world cannot be trouble-free, but when we feel distant from God, Famous shares his insight and his wisdom to help us refocus on our priorities, always on God to help us through.

Erwin has been so great. He’s compassionate & understanding. Listens & mirrors what you’re saying really well so you know you’re heard & understood. So happy I was matched with him.
Written on Nov 12, 2021 after therapy with Famous for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, and relationship issues
When I got started with Famous, I was going through some stress eating/emotional eating which I thought it was my core problem. As I was able to decompress and see what it was beneath it, I gained perspective that my lifestyle was not matching my convictions, but other people's expectations of me, which it led me to chaos and therefore finding comfort/solace in food.
Recovering from emotional eating and have dealt with anorexia in the past, it has been so freeing to look at food from a purpose of "is this going to fuel my body for the tasks at hand" instead of " I can't eat this" or "I'm stressed out, had a tough day so I deserve it!". I can finally say I have a good relationship with my body. Although I workout and have learned to eat clean , it is not a diet mindset for me anymore. On the days I go overboard, I still eat normal the very next day instead of sending my body the message that today we will starve to make up for the splurge.
Famous is someone that will never judge you, but he will challenge your thinking, your habits, your choices. He will applaud you when you do good but will teach you to be kind to yourself on your tough days, because you will have those and you need to be realistic.He has a christian background but he is not churchy and will not evaluate you by your faith background, but as a human being, a client.
Never hesitate to share with him how you are feeling, because doing so saved me from making stupid choices twice. It doesn't matter how silly you feel, if it bothers you, say it!!! You will be glad you did. If you are the kind of person that needs assignments in order to track your progress or needs exercises that focus on issue at hand, he will be able to provide that for you. Do not hesitate to ask.
I can say after 8 months working with him , the only regret I have is I wish I had started sooner.

Great counselor. He has definitely helped me during a very difficult time
Written on Jun 25, 2021 after therapy with Famous for 2 months
I was very apprehensive about speaking to a counselor. Famous has made this process of healing and self improvement well worth it. He is patient and always offers sound advice and support. With each session I am left with feeling more hopeful in the future and a little more confident in my ability to conquer the demons of my past. Would absolutely recommend Famous to anyone who may need a gentle hand to get them through whatever it is they’re dealing with.

Famous has been such a wonderful help to me, and his guidance helped me tremendously into overcoming anxiety in a very short time! His advice and technique are on point always and I can’t imagine healing so much without his help!

Very blessed to have worked with him and to know that I can always reach back when I need to!!

Mr. Erwin it's a 10/10 on what he does. He makes the sessions comfortable and a safe place to talk about what's inside. Amazing person and a charming and optimistic person.
Written on Apr 20, 2021 after therapy with Famous for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and self esteem
I've only had a few sessions with Famous so far, but he's an excellent counselor. He respects me and treats me like a person, not just another patient. He makes me feel valid and seen, and gives me hope that I can overcome the issues I'm facing.
Written on Apr 19, 2021 after therapy with Famous for 2 weeks
Erwin is very sharp and intuitive. You say 2 words and he understands the 10 you couldn't find. Sometimes in one sentence, he provides an answer to a lot of questions. Because he knows how to put in light what matters. In 2 weeks only, I know myself better than in 30 years of trying to understand what is going on in my mind. I strongly recommend Erwin.

Famous is a very talented and experienced Counselor. He's easy to talk with, extremely perceptive, and tailors his advice, techniques, and wisdom to the needs of who he is talking to. He's an attentive listener and makes good for conversation about nearly anything.
I can't recommend him enough as a mental health counselor and as a guide. Especially for young men who struggle with mental health and all other hardships that come with life (stress, finances, relationships, spiritual, etc. etc). Famous is easy to relate and listen to because he uses his extensive personal life experiences and lengthy professional experience to help guide you through whatever it is you're struggling with.
Can't recommend him enough, he's one of the best. Many thanks, Famous.

Famous Erwin is great. I have used his services many times and request him over and over again whenever I need to do some preventative maintenance--or if there was a crisis I think I would definitely contact him.

I needed a different time frame than Famous Erwin had. However 5 Stars to him for being very quick to respond and empathetic and professional. I actually missed a session when traveling and instead of being annoyed and rude he was supportive of me trying to set up another appointment. I imagine he would be a keeper if the time of day for sessions was right!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Famous has helped me immensely with my anxiety. He listens and points me to Christ and gives Biblical advice. He is always quick to respond to any messages. I would recommend him to anyone.
Written on Apr 29, 2019 after therapy with Famous for 6 months
Famous is an incredible man of God. He has a personal walk with God that really translates into his sessions. He is non-judgmental. He is understanding and he gives great advice. He will help you with the Holy Spirit's guidance and not just give formulaic answers even though he does have some of those if need be. He also has an incredible knowledge of the Bible. He is caring and compassionate. The only down side is he does often take a few days to respond to messages. But he follows through and comes to all of his meetings, etc. In just the first session, I made great progress on some serious issues. But even after several more, we continue to work through deep things together in a practical way.

Famous is great! In the beginning, I was very hurt. Famous got to know me. He listened without negatively judging, helped me discover some of the reasons why I was hurt, gave me some tools to help me improve myself. When I struggled to progress, he gave me wise, continuously positive advice. After two months of counseling, I can confidently say Famous helped me. If I ever need counseling again, I'll request him.

At one of the most stressful times of my life when I felt cornered with no one to speak to, Famous made it extremely easy to just let everything out. He didn’t know this but as we spoke I wrote things down and took that notecard around with me. I randomly read it throughout my day and it reminds me of our conversation and just how proud of myself I should be. Famous is an amazing counselor!

Erwin is a very kind, God loving, people loving, patient man. He is knowledgeable about both scripture and the human mind and its complexities. I would recommend anyone stuck in lifes most chaotic circumstances to give Erwin a chance. He cannot fix it for you, only God can do that, but he can and does speak through God to give you the tools for a closer relationship with the almighty, and find a sound mind and peace.
