Kevin is always professional and lovely to work with. While he is of a Christian background and I am not, I never feel judged or that his personal beliefs drive his advice or opinions. I'm so grateful to have been paired with Kevin - easily one of the best experiences I've had with therapy.

Kevin's thoughtful and kind approach is perfect for someone new to receiving online therapy. Having spoken with him, my self-knowledge has grown significantly; his sharing of insights and wisdoms have led to my own - I don't think that there is much more that I could ask for from a therapist. Thank you, Kevin.

Kevin and I have quickly approached some of the important core issues once I shared a little background on me. The resources he is providing and we are discussing having been very valuable.
