Jared is empathetic, kind, intelligent, and easy to work with. He is easy to express thought and emotion to- big or small. And has helped me find confidence and belief in myself.

Jared has been and a good listener and helped reinforce behaviors and introduce methods that will help with my addiction issue. I respect his professionalism and knowledge of my subject mater. I’m would recommend Jared to anyone else who feels that they can’t talk to someone or that may be on the fence. He will make you feel comfortable and allow you to open as necessary.
