Joe has been fantastic to work with over the last several months. He has been my first introduction to therapy and I couldn't have hoped for a better guide. He's helped steer me from a very dark place in my life and I couldn't possibly offer him as much thanks as he deserves. He expertly blends theory with practice and has given me the tools to continue my mental wellness journey.

Joe is an incredibly compassionate therapist who utilizes active listening to ensure I feel heard and seen during our sessions. I rarely have a session where I am unable to tap into some deep emotional struggles and do quality processing on them. I've already seen key changes in myself after working with Joe for only a handful of sessions. I'll be happy to continue working with Joe well into the future.

I had a difficult time finding a therapist who did what their description said they do. Joe definitely is supportive and kind , respectful of my limitations while at the same time encourages me to go past my comfort zone. I was ready to give up on this app until he came along . Although I’ll have to stop because of financial difficulties(now that I have to repair my car) I will definitely try to come back and work with Joe again when i can budget it back in .

Joe is a warm, wonderful, and empathetic counselor. His teachings about awareness, both in the mind and body, are transformative for those who struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, and trauma.

How do I write a review for an individual who has essentially changed the trajectory of my life? Within a year, my father died suddenly and I unwittingly became a frontline worker during the pandemic. With Joe's wisdom, support and guidance, not only am I well on my way to recovering from and living with these traumas but I have also become a happier person then I was before all of this happened. I am now able to use an arsenal of strategies to better handle the everyday stresses and anxieties of life and meditation to find peace when it can't be found elsewhere.
