Jeffrey Stier has helped me find the faults in my life that I was struggling with. He found my vulnerabilities and I let others and so myself use against me. But he also helped me find my strengths. My voice. He helped me cope with things from my past and in turn is helping me cope with the now! He has a special way of helping me turn my upside downs in to building blocks. A foundation I’ve struggled to build. And he is doing it in a manner that shows me way I am capable of. I love and respect the connection he has built for me by finding myself. It’s an amazing feeling!

I have been with a few different therapist and I never felt like they understood me and my situation. They've all been good but therapy with Jeffery is different. I feel like I'm getting somewhere and that I'm going to be okay. I was so hesitant to have a male therapist but I trusted the universe and it was the best decision I have made. He gets me and understands that I need more than what I had in the past. I've gotten more out of 3 months with him than I did in 2 years with a local therapist. Jeffrey is very kind, gentle, understanding and when I have problems comprehending he explains it so I don't feel dumb or disrespected. I have already recommended him to friends who are in need of a good therapist. I feel like my healing journey is finally moving and I'm not spinning my wheels in the mud. I'm looking forward to a happy healthy life as we continue.
