People are social animals. We need to connect with others and also we connect best with ourselves when we are working harmoniously in relationship when we're connecting with the right people. Sometimes, there are parts of ourselves that we can't talk about with most people but we need to talk about it and that's where therapy can be helpful. Therapy is a space to explore, reflect, and recollect yourself. My role in that process is hold open space for you to talk about the stuff that you simply may not be able to work out in other relationships right now.
Life can be difficult. Talking about it can make it better.

Larry is kind, thoughtful, and really listens to me in order to get to the gist of what I’m feeling or where I’m at. He gives practical suggestions, and I feel seen and respected. Zero judgment, always helpful. I feel like I have a therapy partner in this journey in Larry.

I adore him, he has been the best therapist I have ever had. He helps me see my experiences from new perspectives and understand why they are affecting me in different ways. He challenges me to stretch and grow, but all within a safe space.

I have been working with Larry for a while now, and I have to say he has been wonderful. He is very validating, and if when I address what I would like to work on during the next session he always remembers. I would recommend him to anyone!
