I highly recommend Justin as a therapist. He is an excellent listener who creates a calm, supportive space that makes it easier to open up. In just a few sessions, he has helped me see things about myself more clearly by offering thoughtful, well-timed prompts and constructive directions for reflection.
Justin is both insightful and genuinely understanding, and he is also very responsive when communicating between sessions. I’ve found his approach to be grounding, practical, and deeply helpful in moving my work forward.
