John is great! He gave me an extra hour of counseling when I needed it. Gave me really good advice that I genuinely considered and tried to implement more into my life. Really goes in depth with your past and see's how it can contribute to your habits and personality. Also knows CBT and DBT and gives his honest advice and perspective. Really great working with him. Thank you John

I was honestly skeptical about the whole “therapy” thing for a while. Then I was paired with John, and he really helped me in ways that have put me on a better path. He is patient, caring, and genuine. He loves the Lord and has real experience dealing with the hardships of life which gives him good insight.
