Dr.Farmer is an amazing therapist. He has been extremely patient with us during our complicated situation. He has taken the time to meet with us over the weekend, he listens, he engages, he is far from biased, he meets you where you are and seeks to get to the root of the problem. Dr.Farmer is always interactive; he provides assessments, he role plays, and asks questions for deeper insight as he focuses on your needs. He is about seeing growth and progress therefore the service he provides aids in doing so. He reads your journals and takes important notes to address them during your sessions. He pays attention to everything; word use, intonation of your voice, body language, type of speech utilized, and your visual focus. After our first session with Dr. Farmer we started seeing changes amongst ourselves. By session two the deeper things were coming out. If you actively do the work you will see growth. I would most definitely recommend Dr. Farmer to anyone I know.
