I've found Joesph to be very warm and approachable with an ability to listen, offer insights and suggestions. I connected instantly with Joe as we're in the same age bracket and participate in similar activities. I appreciate that he will listen for as long as you are communicating your thoughts without interruption, providing means of framing situations and ways to approach specific topics when asked.

Joseph has been an awesome therapist so far after only 2 sessions. He is clearly intelligent and listens and takes notes. He actually cares about what you’re experiencing and after many bad therapy experiences it’s been a relief to find someone who makes me feel less anxious and more stable after each session.

Joseph has been wonderful to work with. He is very understanding, non-judgemental and has a sense of humour. He is not pushy and encourages you to discuss things as you are ready to do so. Joseph regularly follows up and sends messages reiterating what was discussed in sessions so that you can refer to this information throughout the week. I would highly recommend Joseph to anyone seeking counselling!
